Question: Is barley the unsung hero of the grain world?
Here’s what
you need:
1 ½ C pearl
barley
3 C water
plus more if it needs it
1 C garbanzo
beans (or more to taste)
½ C Kalamata
olives, chopped
¼ C pine
nuts
½ C onion,
chopped
3-4 cloves
garlic, minced
¼ C lemon
juice
3 T olive
oil, plus more for the pan
2 T red wine
vinegar
1 t cumin
½ t coriander
Salt and
pepper to taste
4 C baby
kale, stemmed and cut in small pieces
Here’s what
you do:
Bring 3 C
water to boil in a big pot. Add the barley and 1 t salt. Bring back to boil,
lower to simmer, cover and cook for about 30-35 minutes. I had to add more
water a few times. When the barley is tender and most of the liquid is gone,
set it aside.
Make the
dressing by whisking together: lemon juice, olive oil, vinegar, cumin,
coriander, salt, and pepper.
When the
barley is almost done, stir in the kale, cover and allow to cook for about 5
more minutes.
