Advice

Preguntas frecuentes

Please provide the text that you would like me to simplify. Can I use another type of beef cut?

Although chuck roast is suggested for its taste and tenderness, you can use other cuts like brisket or round roast for slow cooking. Change the cooking times as necessary.
Please provide the text you would like me to simplify. Can I prepare this soup in advance?

Yes, this soup can be heated up again and prepared in advance. Keep it in a sealed container in the fridge for up to 3 days or freeze it for longer.
Could you please provide the text that you would like me to simplify? Can I leave out the corn or use a different vegetable instead?

Of course! You can change the soup by leaving out the corn or using peas, green beans, or any other vegetable you prefer.
Please provide the text you would like me to simplify. Can I use fast-cooking barley instead of regular barley?

Barley that cooks quickly takes less time to cook and can get too soft if cooked for too long. If you are using fast-cooking barley, change the cooking time as needed and put it in the pot near the end of cooking.
