Not every family serves pearl barley often, which is a very serious mistake in terms of diet formation.
It is difficult to find a product at such a relatively low cost with such an excellent composition.
The main complaint is that the porridge does not turn out tasty even if it is soaked for a long time, explains Yulia Arkhipova, a culinary expert for the online publication BelNovosti.
5 Secrets You Shouldn't Forget
Wash the cereal
Soaking is, of course, a useful procedure, but it does not eliminate the need for a thorough rinsing at the very beginning. Therefore, we try to never forget about this stage.
Special cooking technique
In order for the taste of pearl barley to be as pleasant as possible, you need to know about one secret cooking method. After washing, put the cereal in a container, wait for it to boil and time it for four minutes.
Afterwards, the liquid is removed and new liquid is poured in.
Proportions of oil and water
The minimum ratio of cereal to water is 1 to 3, and the maximum is 1 to 5. With oil, everything is much simpler: it is recommended to add just one small spoon of the product at the very beginning of cooking.
Dishes
In order for the pearl barley to be as tasty as possible, you need to be able to choose the right dishes. For this, choose a container with thick walls.
Do not use immediately
Pearl barley does not like haste, so it is not suitable for lovers of "quick" side dishes. The porridge needs to stand before serving so that its taste comes out excellent.
