Black Barley

Black Barley, also known as purple hull-less barley with entire bran layer stays attached to 
kernel and is edible. When cooked, it maintains its glossy rich purplish-opal color, with nutty, slightly sweet flavor and chewy texture. It is a healthy and colorful addition to stuffing or pilaf. Wonderful in soups, stir fries and salads or as alternative to rice, or as a hot breakfast cereal with honey, cream, and a pinch of salt.

Cooking Instructions: Wash, rinse, soak overnight and drain. Add 1 cup to 3 cups boiling
 water. Cover and simmer until liquid is absorbed (50 min). Drain any excess water. 

1 cup dry barley yields 3 cups cooked Barley.
