Barley maneštra
The barley version has more names than any other Istrian maneštra, including far, šen, zimac, ješprenj, ječmik, stupanje.
It is said that this maneštra is extremely good for cleansing the digestive tract. It is rich and smooth and excellent with smoked meat added to it.
Warning: if you don't have two bay leaves, do not attempt to prepare this one.
