All natural medium pearled and hulled barley is a member of the cereal grain. Oprah calls barley a Super Food! It is high in protein, fiber, Vitamin B6, and phosphorous. Not only is barley a low glycemic grain, but it is also high in both soluble and insoluble fiber. Soluble fiber helps the body metabolize fats, cholesterol, and carbohydrates and lowers blood cholesterol levels. Insoluble fiber commonly called “roughage”, promotes a healthy digestive tract and reduces the risk of cancers affecting it. A recent study has shown that eating whole barley can help regulate blood sugar for up to 10 hours! Barley is excellent in breakfast cereals, soups, and stews, as a rice substitute in risotto, and even in bread.
Rinse the barley in a colander under cold water. Transfer the barley to a medium-size pot along with water, or stock, and salt. Bring the barley to a boil over high heat. Add on a lid and simmer over low heat for 20 minutes or just until tender and chewy.
