We sell pearl barley by the tablespoon.
The hearty, satisfying grain that slow-cooked comfort is built on. Pearl barley brings wonderful chewy texture and subtle nuttiness to soups, stews, and risotto-style dishes. Essential for beef barley soup, Scotch broth, and mushroom-barley pilaf. Its creamy, slightly toothsome bite absorbs broths and sauces beautifully. Stir into salads for substance, simmer into porridge, or use anywhere you'd reach for rice or farro. High in fiber, filling, and affordable. Cooks without soaking, stays pleasantly chewy without turning mushy. The ancient grain that's earned its place in modern kitchens—wholesome, versatile, and deeply comforting in every spoonful.
