How To Make Boiled Barley

Here's an easy way to try your hand at boiled barley. It's one of the more popular ways of preparing this hearty grain (if you don't own a pressure cooker).

Begin by mixing your pre-soaked barley and water together in a pot (with a lid). The ratio of barley to water is 3 cups water for every 1 cup of barley.

Over high heat, bring the barley and water, uncovered, to a boil. Cover, and reduce the heat to low. Allow the barley to simmer for 45 minutes. Do not add salt to your barley until AFTER it is cooked, since it can block absorption of water.

Cooked barley will always retain some chewiness. You'll know your barley is done when 20 percent of them have burst open.

You can use the above method with non-pre-soaked barley too. Follow directions as above but cook for 1 1/2 - 2 hours instead.

Your barley is now ready to be enjoyed in any way you'd like. Use Barley's "Vegan Flavor Matches" to create your very own recipe!
