Editorial Review:
Product DescriptionMuch like rye, barley can grow in harsh conditions and poor soils where other grains wouldn't produce well. Being an ancient grain, barley was one of the first grains domesticated, even before wheat was cultivated. Barley's nutrition is much like wheat's. There are a few minor differences. Barley contains twice as many fatty acids as wheat, which accounts for it's 10 percent higher calorie count. Barley contains 40 percent more protein than wheat. Barley also contains a good vitamin E, 68 percent more thiamin, 250 percent more riboflavin, and 38 percent more lysine than wheat, giving barley a more balanced protein. Fancy Pearled Barley has a mild nutty flavor and is used in many different Asian and Middle Eastern dishes. Honeyville's unique pearling process removes essentially all hulls from the kernel. Pearled Barley is also used to make other quality Honeyville products such as Barley Flakes, Cracked Barley, and Barley Bran.
