Ingredients
  • BARLEY
  • Barley is a favorite with ancient civilizations
  • It is mentioned in the Bible 32 times
  • In John 6:9-11 the young boy gives the Lord five barley loaves and two small fish
  • Barley is a sweet, nutty flavored grain and lacks gluten which must be added for baking
  • (For baking in bread, one part barley to five parts wheat flour)
  • Barley puts new flavor appeal in soups, casseroles, pilaf, and puddings

  • High in minerals and protein
  • Personal Note: My mother used barley in much of her Southern cooking, especially in soups, she used Pearl Barley
