Organic Pearl Barley is a versatile store cupboard staple that adds wholesome texture and nourishment to everyday cooking. Naturally high in fibre and a source of plant-based protein, it is ideal for creating hearty soups, slow-cooked stews and casseroles, while also making an excellent base for fresh grain salads, pilafs and barley risottos. Pearl barley cooks to a tender, pleasantly chewy texture and absorbs the flavours of herbs, spices and stocks beautifully.
Carefully pearled for quicker cooking, this organic barley is an easy way to enjoy the goodness of an ancient cereal grain in modern recipes. Use it as a nutritious alternative to rice or pasta, stir it into vegetable dishes, or add it to homemade soups for extra substance and flavour. Its mild, nutty taste makes it a versatile ingredient that works equally well in comforting winter meals and fresh summer salads.
