By: Charleen Badman | Originally published by the James Beard Foundation Ingredients: Vinaigrette: 1 clove garlic 1/3 cup lemon juice 1 tablespoon minced preserved lemon 2 teaspoons toasted ground cumin 1 teaspoon toasted ground coriander 1 teaspoon sea salt ½ teaspoon black pepper ½ teaspoon chipotle chile flakes 1 cup extra virgin olive oil Salad: ¾ cup Marsh Hen Mill Black Barley or pearled barley 3 asparagus spears, sliced on the bias 3 small heirloom carrots, sliced into thin rounds 2 spring onions, green and white parts sliced thin 1 small summer squash, sliced into thin rounds ½ bulb fennel, thinly sliced ½ cup chopped arugula, lightly packed ½ cup chopped heirloom tomatoes ½ cup roughly chopped parsley leaves, lightly packed ¼ cup chopped cilantro, lightly packed ¼ cup chopped mint, lightly packed Salt and pepper to taste Directions: Prepare the barley the night before: soak the grain overnight in cold water. Drain and place into a saucepan. Cover with enough cold water to rise a couple of inches above the grains. Bring to a boil and reduce to a simmer. Simmer until the grains are tender, about 40 minutes, adding more water if necessary to keep the barley covered. Drain and rinse under cold water to remove any excess starch. Lay out on a half sheet tray or cookie sheet to cool and dry for 20 minutes. Make the vinaigrette: using a microplane, grate the garlic clove. Stir the garlic and the remaining ingredients besides the oil together in a small bowl. Let sit for at least 1 hour for the flavors to develop and the garlic to soften. Slowly whisk in the olive oil. Toss the cooked barley with just enough of the vinaigrette in a large bowl to coat the grains. Let sit for at least 30 minutes to allow the grains to absorb the dressing. Toss in the remaining salad ingredients. Taste and season with more dressing, salt, and pepper to taste.
