• Barley, one of the most ancient of cultivated grains, is most commonly available in the pearl variety, the kind sold in supermarkets. Searching a bit further afield, you might find pot barley in natural foods stores and food co-ops. The latter is less refined, retaining more of the natural fiber and bran. Both kinds are mild tasting, pleasantly chewy, and versatile. Basic cooking directions are above (Step 1).
• Barley is a favorite soup grain. Add uncooked barley to long-simmering winter soups (such as Split Pea and Barley Soup, page 25) for extra heartiness. Add cooked barley to cold summer soups (such as Cold Potato-Barley Buttermilk Soup, page 14) for a wonderful texture.
• Think of barley as a change of pace from rice in pilafs and casseroles.
• Barley is delicious as a base for marinated grain salads (see Barley or Rice and Corn Salad, page 46).
