Description:
Pearl barley has a chewy texture and mild grain flavour. Barley is harvested with the hull intact. Pearling is a scouring process which removes the outer hull and the bran layer of the barley kernel. This process makes the kernels faster to cook but slightly less nutritious.
Benefits:
- Pearl barley is commonly used in soup and stew.
- It also makes a great side dish as an alternative to rice or pasta, and any leftovers can be made into a tasty cold salad.

When done, grind it in a blender to the consistency desired. Use as you would regular coffee to achieve desired strength or flavour.
