Overview
Our pearl barley is a versatile product. This is barley that has had its tough outer hull removed and then been polished down to make it easier to cook with. Pearl barley is great to add to soups, stews, risottos, and makes a great hot cereal in the mornings. Pearl barley is a great way to add fiber to your diet. This is a great substitute for rice. This is a must have for your long term food storage.
Directions: In medium saucepan with lid, bring 3 cups water to a boil. Add 1 cup pearl barley and return to boil. Reduce heat to low, cover and cook 45 minutes or until barley is tender and the liquid is absorbed. Makes about 3-3/4 to 4 cups.
NOTE: Pearl barley may be cooked ahead and stored for a short time prior to using. Place cooked barley in an airtight container and refrigerate or freeze for up to a week. For best results, bring refrigerated or frozen barley to room temperature before using.
