If you want your porridge to always turn out perfect, you should remember some nuances during the cooking process.
First of all, you need to remember that the grains must be thoroughly washed before cooking. It is better to use warm water.
Another trick is to choose the right pot for cooking. It is advisable to take a pot with a thick bottom.
Porridge should be cooked over low heat. High or low temperatures will spoil the dish.
In addition, it is important to correctly calculate the proportion of water and cereal. Experienced cooks recommend taking three glasses of water for one glass of product.
At the beginning of cooking, you can put a piece of butter in the pan. In this case, the grains will be more tender, soft and aromatic.
Another culinary trick is that pearl barley likes to "rest". After cooking, it should be left to sit under a lid and a towel for about 20-30 minutes.
If you follow these simple rules, your porridge will always be tasty and crumbly.
