A cheerful spirit is one of the most valuable gifts ever bestowed upon humanity by a kind Creator. It is the sweetest and most fragrant flower of the Spirit, that constantly sends out its beauty and fragrance, and blesses everything within its reach. It will sustain the soul in the darkest and most dreary places of this world. It will hold in check the demons of despair, and stifle the power of discouragement and hopelessness. It is the brightest star that ever cast its radiance over the darkened soul, and one that seldom sets in the gloom of morbid fancies and forboding imaginations.
RINSE THE BARLEY and put it in a pot with the water and salt to taste.
Bring to a boil, lower the heat, and simmer until the barley is tender,
about 45 minutes. Drain the barley. (The liquid can be reserved to use in
another soup.) Toss the onions into the warm barley to wilt them slightly;
then put the mixture in a soup bowl with the buttermilk. Stir in the
turmeric and herbs and season to taste with additional salt. Cover and
refrigerate until chilled. Serve with freshly ground pepper and paprika or
with a garnish of blossoms, such as chive blossoms, cilantro flowers or
mustard petals.
