Cold Armenian Yogurt-Barley Soup by Sy

== Description ==
This delicious yogurt soup just "Hits The Spot" on a hot summers day! You can find variations of this recipe from Eastern Europe to the Middle East. I especially loved the yogurts in Turkey, Iran and Greece. If possible, try making your own home made yogurt. I use a Salton yogurt Maker and the yogurt comes out rich and creamy. However, a good substitute is the Greek yogurts found in some of the bigger supermarkets. 
=== Ingredients ===
* 4 cups rich creamy high fat content yogurt 
* 2 cups already made Barley (cold) 
* water (cold) 
* salt, pinch of 
* dried mint (not the fresh mint leaves) 
== Directions ==
* In individual bowls add 1 cup of yogurt, some Barley, a pinch of salt and water. 
* Mix into a nice medium thick consistency (like the thickness of buttermilk) Sprinkle some dried mint leaves on top. 
* Enjoy.
