Ash-e Jo - Persian Barley, Herb and Bean Pottage

Outdoor temperatures have dropped significantly and so it’s time I share a new Aash Recipe with you. Beside Ash-e Reshteh, Ash-e Jo is another much loved pottage with herbs and beans. Another key ingredient in this ash is barley. If you are new to Persian cuisine, you may wonder what the difference between Ash-e Jo (Barley Pottage) and Soup-e Jo (Barley Soup) is. Apart from ash having a thicker consistency, it always features herbs and beans as key ingredients.
