Description

Semi-Pearled Purple Prairie Barley is an heirloom grain that traces its roots to the mountains of Tibet, and ultimately back thousands of years to the Nile River Valley. Its sweet smoky flavor recommends it as an ingredient for soups, salads, and pilafs. Or grind it into a stunning pastel purple flour and substitute it for up to 10% of the flour in yeast bread recipes or as much as 50% of the flour in pancakes, muffins, or waffles.Lightly pearled, just enough bran has been removed to speed up cooking while delivering the fiber, vitamins and minerals, and anthocyanins needed for a healthy diet. Much of the dark bran remains and the kernel keeps its dark color.This delicious and beautiful barley is 15% protein, high in cholesterol-fighting beta glucans, and a tasty source of Potassium, Iron, and Calcium. With its dark purple seed coat, it is also high in the disease-fighting antioxidants known as anthocyanins.Grown in Montana, USA.
