14 of 14 people found the following review helpful By Amazon Verified Purchase This review is from: Great River Organic Milling, Organic Whole Grains Hulled Barley, 25-Pound Package (Grocery) Not much to say here. The barley is as advertised. The shipping was slower than I expected, especially since the state of origin isn't all that far from my home, but the price was better than I could find anywhere else.This is hulled barley, which has the bran intact, unlike pearl barley. It takes longer to cook, but it also keeps better and that is what I want in a grain. Also, of course, having the bran intact means having the bran to eat, which is more fiber in our diets. I have cooked this whole in a stew, and it was the same as pearl barley in appearance. I cracked it in a Corona mill and it then cooked up like rice in a soup. When we poured it into the storage bucket, the grain appeared clean. There was no dirt or foreign plant material. 10 of 10 people found the following review helpful By Amazon Verified Purchase This review is from: Great River Organic Milling, Organic Whole Grains Hulled Barley, 25-Pound Package (Grocery) This barley is totally free of any inedible hulls. It cooks easily in a steamer set to 75 minutes and left to sit for an additional 30 after that. Once cooked it stores nicely in the refrigerator without losing it's flavor or texture. I find the texture to comfortably chewy with a faint nutlike taste similar to brown rice. The grains of barley do tend to be sticky so you're not going to get a one grain at the time Minute Rice experience, a good thing in my estimation. 3 of 3 people found the following review helpful By Amazon Verified Purchase This review is from: Great River Organic Milling, Organic Whole Grains Hulled Barley, 25-Pound Package (Grocery) Huge Bag of a very nutty, chewy and wholesome barley. Once I saw the bag I knew I was in for the long haul but it is no problem for it keeps well as long as you follow the storage guidelines. I immediately, upon receiving it, made a batch and was aware that cooking times required would have to be longer than the supermarket version. I mostly use it for soups of all kinds and also as an alternative to lentils, beans, garbanzos, etc. There is a recipe in the old country where you would cook them as you might cook most legumes until they are plumped and ready to go. Then you would add the required mix of onions or shallots or green onions, tomatoes if desired (can or finely chopped fresh) garlic, plenty of herbs and personal choice spices to add flavor to the mix. Then you would fried bananas and eggs and put one over medium egg on top and a couple of slices of bananas on the side, all this accompanied by brown rice or white rice. The healthy nature of Barley makes it ideal for regular... Read more |
