Tips:
- Beef Selection: You can opt for a different cut of beef suitable for stewing, such as chuck roast, brisket, or round steak.
- Vegetable Variations: Feel free to add other vegetables like diced potatoes, green beans, or peas to tailor the soup to your preference.
- Barley Texture: If you prefer a thicker soup, you can add more barley. Be aware that barley tends to absorb liquid, so you might need to adjust the amount of broth or water accordingly.
