Pour in 1 qt. beef broth. Start sprinkling in dehydrated vegis. (May decide to add a bit more after all liquids are in). Add potato, pearl barley or macaroni. About 3 T. each or to your taste..Add juices .
Simmer until vegis are tender. Taste and add vinegar and sugar to your taste. Start with 1 tsp. each. I like about 2 Tbs. in mine. Perhaps a bit more vinegar.
Let simmer for about 20 minutes after vegis are done. If possible, let sit in fridge overnight. Soup is always better the 2nd day.
