    5. Thanks, Pat, for posting this recipe. I knew it was meant for our household when I saw the three ingredients in the title: barley and mushrooms have been our favorite foods for months and we always want to eat more tofu. I used red wine instead of oil, and next time I will skip the vinegar. Kathleen
