ORGANIC BARLEY 1 Kg

🌱 Organic and 100% Italian Oltresole organic pearled barley, in a convenient 1 kg format, is a 100% Italian grain characterized by the removal of bran and husks through pearling, which accelerates cooking and makes it highly digestible. 💎Rich in minerals | 🧘 Digestible grain A valuable source of soluble and insoluble fiber, B vitamins (B1, B2, B3), and vitamin E, as well as minerals such as iron, magnesium, phosphorus, potassium, and calcium, pearl barley supports intestinal regularity, contributes to cardiovascular health, and helps control abdominal bloating. 💧No soaking required | 🍲 Perfect for soups and broths After briefly rinsing under running water, the barley should be cooked in boiling water, plant-based milk, or broth (1:2 ratio) for 20–25 minutes, stirring occasionally until completely absorbed. Alternatively, it can be steamed or baked for different consistencies. Thanks to its neutral and delicate flavour, it is ideal for soups, minestrone, cream soups and “orzotto” – a variant of risotto to be enriched with seasonal vegetables, legumes or mushrooms – but it works equally well in cold summer salads combined with tomatoes, cucumbers, chickpeas and fresh cheeses, or in vegetarian meatballs mixed with spinach, ricotta or pumpkin.
