Pearled barley has been lightly milled to remove part or all of the germ and bran, leaving just the ‘pearl' inside. With a mild nutty flavour it is a popular grain since it is not as chewy as unhulled barley grain and it cooks faster. It may be cooked and served as a side dish similar to rice or couscous. Once cooked, it can be used in salads, to thicken soups, broths or stews or for stuffing.  To cook simmer 1 part barley in 4 parts water for 30-45mins.
