For an even richer flavor, consider browning the ground beef in a tablespoon of olive oil. If you don't have pearl barley, you can substitute with rice or small pasta shapes, but adjust the cooking time accordingly. A splash of Worcestershire sauce or a dash of smoked paprika can add depth to the soup. This soup tastes even better the next day, as the flavors have time to meld together. Serve hot with crusty bread or homemade biscuits.
