APPLE BARLEY PUDDING



Apple Barley Pudding image

Irish cuisine originated in the kitchens of the farmers of the past from good, wholesome food made with locally grown produce. Irish grain staples were barley, wheat, oats, and rye. Combine it with apples, another staple and you have a great Irish favorite. It can also make a hearty breakfast for those cold winter months if served warm instead of chilled. Especially if you use yogurt in place of the cream, also making it a great low fat dessert. :D Great either way. Posted for Zaar World Tour 05

Tips:

  • Choose the right barley: Use medium-pearl barley or pot barley for a chewy texture and nutty flavor. Hull-less barley can also be used, but it cooks more quickly and has a milder flavor.
  • Rinse the barley thoroughly: This will remove any dirt or debris, and help the barley cook evenly.
  • Use a heavy-bottomed pot: This will help to prevent the barley from sticking to the bottom of the pot and burning.
  • Bring the barley and water to a boil, then reduce the heat to low: This will help to prevent the barley from boiling over and becoming mushy.
  • Cook the barley until it is tender, about 45 minutes to 1 hour: The barley should be chewy, but not hard.
  • Drain the barley and rinse it with cold water: This will help to stop the cooking process and prevent the barley from becoming sticky.
  • Season the barley with salt and pepper to taste: You can also add other spices or herbs, such as garlic powder, onion powder, or dried thyme.
  • Serve the barley hot or cold: Barley pudding can be served as a side dish, a main course, or a dessert.

Conclusion:

Scottish barley pudding is a versatile and delicious dish that can be enjoyed in many different ways. It is a good source of fiber, protein, and vitamins, and it is also relatively low in calories. Whether you serve it hot or cold, as a side dish or a main course, barley pudding is sure to be a hit with your family and friends.
