Pearl Barley

What Is Pearl Barley?

Rich in taste and nutrients, Pearl Barley is an ancient whole grain that has been used for thousands of years. Pearl barley has all the husks removed and is then polished (pearled), resulting in a product that resembles large grains of rice.

Why Should I Get Pearl Barley ?

Pearl barley can be prepared in a variety of different ways. One of the first cultivated grains in history remains one of the most widely consumed grains, globally. Pearl barley can be used to bulk up soups and stews, made into a salad for a substantial main meal, or it can be used in place of Arborio rice in risotto.

Pearl barley cooks to al dente in boiling, salted water in around 25 minutes, or around 40 minutes at a low simmer. Switch rice for barley, and you will have a filling, comforting dish. Fry garlic, onion, spices in a saucepan before adding barley grains. Stir in your chosen stock, a little at a time. Leave to simmer for 25 minutes until the stock has been absorbed.
