Black barley
Rinse the Black Barley.
Combine 1 cup of Black Barley to 3-4 cups of water together, season with salt according to own preference, and bring it to boil. Once it has boiled, lower the heat to a low simmer, and cook until barley is ready (around 40 to 45 minutes).
If you prefer, water can be added if it has dried up before the barley is done. The barley is cooked when it is tender and chewy.
