Many people associate barley porridge with the most appetizing side dish they had to eat in kindergarten or in the school cafeteria.
However, the dish can be prepared in such a way that it turns out incredibly tasty.
Following a few tricks will allow you to turn ordinary cereal into a culinary masterpiece.
First, you need to take an important step soon after boiling water. Secondly, barley is desirable not only to cook in a pan on the stove, but also to subject it to another method of processing.
The secrets of the perfect barley
Has the water the cereal is in started to boil? Wait a few minutes, then drain the liquid.
The remaining barley in the pan must be filled with a new portion of water. Further, it should be boiling water, in which there are two additives: salt and a tablespoon of melted butter.
Barley porridge should be boiled in this liquid until it becomes thick. It usually takes 20 minutes.
However, before the end of the preparation of the dish is still far. Only the first step is complete. Then the pan should be removed from the heat and put in the oven for a couple of hours.
After that, the porridge will reach full readiness. The food will turn out incredibly fragrant and crumbly.
It is certainly not the dish that is often offered in kindergartens or in the canteens of medical institutions.
