Zürsun Black Barley

Good for the earth and good for you, this black barley is from heirloom seeds that promote agricultural diversity as well as authentic flavor. With a mahogany color and coffee bean shape, this hearty, nutty grain makes a refreshing substitute for rice in soups, salads and side dishes.

• Adds nutty flavor and chewy texture to soups, salads, stuffing and pilaf.
• Makes an excellent alternative to rice, or combine it with rice and other grains for rich texture and color. 
• These botanical heirlooms are a part of living history, supporting centuries-old plant varieties and preserving the genetic diversity of our food supply.
