After completing your soup\, freeze and label it for donation\, then drop off at one of our participating food assistance providers\, with a person or family that is in your heart\, or anyplace that you prefer\, when convenient. Finally\, report on where you shared your KindSoup and spread the word: Post a picture or two of you and your soups on social media with #DoKindWorks and tag us @DoKindWorks. \nConnect to Zoom event \n\n\nBroccoli\, Barley and Cannellini Bean Soup\n\n\n\nIngredients\n\n1 cup pearl barley\nSalt\n3 heads of broccoli (about 3 pounds)\n½ cup extra-virgin olive oil\, plus more for serving\n4 ½ tablespoons chopped garlic\n3 cups cooked cannellini or other white beans (from 3 15-ounce cans)\, rinsed and drained\n3 beef bouillon (vegetable stock or bouillon) cubes or 3 teaspoons beef stock concentrate \nFreshly ground black pepper\n\nInstructions\n\n\nPut the barley in a large saucepan with enough water to cover by 3 inches and ½ teaspoon of salt. Bring to a slow\, steady simmer\, then cover\, and cook until the barley is fully tender\, 30 to 45 minutes. Drain\, saving the water in a large bowl for the soup.\nWhile the barley is cooking\, detach the florets and any small leaves from the broccoli. Peel the main stems and the florets’ stems. Rinse the broccoli well.\nFill a large soup pot with water and bring to a boil. Add 5 tablespoons salt and the thick\, main broccoli stems. (The salt is to keep the broccoli green and it will not make it too salty.) Cook for 7 or 8 minutes\, then add the florets. When the water returns to a boil\, cook for another 10 minutes or so\, then drain. Chop the broccoli rather fine and set aside.\nPut the olive oil and garlic in the soup pot\, turn on the heat to medium\, and cook\, stirring frequently\, just until the garlic turns a deep ivory\, about 1 ½ minutes.\nAdd the broccoli and cook for 2 or 3 minutes\, turning it over from time to time to coat it well. Add the cannellini beans and cooked barley and stir once or twice.\nAdd enough of the barley cooking water to cover by at least 2 inches\, using fresh water if you need more. Put in the bouillon cube and several grindings of pepper\, and stir for 15 or 20 seconds. Bring to a simmer and cook for about 5 minutes. Taste and correct for seasoning. Serve with a trickle of olive oil in each bowl.\n\n\n\nHealth and Safety Information\nIn order to protect the the quality of our KindSoup program\, we ask that volunteers conscientiously observe the following guidelines: \n\nStart with clean hands and wash again frequently as needed throughout the cooking process.\nStart with clean kitchen surfaces and utensils (antibacterial wipes do a great job).\nKeep longer hair tied back.\nFollow other common sense procedures\, such as never returning a tasting spoon to the pot!\n\nThank you for maintaining a high cleanliness standard for our KindSoup donations! \nHow to Donate Your KindSoup\nSeal containers with a tight lid and freeze. Label each container with: date prepared\, your first name and last initial\, “Broccoli\, Barley and Cannellini Bean Soup” and any relevant food allergy info. When convenient\, drop containers of frozen soup off at one of the following participating food assistance providers\, with a person or family that is in your heart\, or a place that you prefer. \n\nRainbow Community Development Center 12120 Tech Road\, Silver Spring (this takes you to the rear parking lot and loading dock – there is usually a large RAINBOW truck parked here): Drop-off Monday-Friday 9am-2pm.
