Butternut Barley

Ingredients

  • 1 lb 8 oz of Butternut squash
  • 1 qt + 3.5 cups of Boiling water
  • 1 lb 8 oz of Pearled barley
  • 3 Tbsp of Salted butter
  • 1 1/2 tsp of Kosher salt

Steps

  1. Preheat convection oven to 350°F.
  2. Cut squash in half lengthwise and place cut side down on a half sheet pan. Bake until soft, 30 to 35 minutes. When cool, scoop out flesh and purée in a food processor.
  3. Combine the squash purée, water, barley, butter and salt in 2-inch deep full hotel pan. Mix until well combined. Cover tightly with plastic wrap then foil. (You want the pan to be airtight to keep in the moisture.)
  4. Bake for 1 hour. Uncover and stir. It should be creamy and barley should be soft but not mushy. If it seems too watery, recover and bake for 20 minutes more.
