Whole Grain Barley
More About Whole Grain Barley:
Most people are familiar with pearl or pearled barley, but whole grain barley has a much fuller flavor, as well as being more nutritious. Barley was also an important grain in Biblical times, being the grain that Ruth gleaned in Boaz’s field some 3,000 years ago. We purchase our whole grain barley from the co-op or from a health food store. We use whole grain barley as one of the ingredients in bread and in other recipes containing barley. See the nutritional chart below.
