This processing makes it better for cooking with, reducing the cooking time required and leaving it less chewy than other barley grains like hulled barley. This versatile grain can be incorporated into numerous meals like soups and stews, and provides numerous benefits. The nutritional goodness of barley is passed onto your meal, and you can benefit from the vitamins and minerals in barley, as well as plenty of dietary fibre.
