Ingredients
Roasting Pearl Barley
- 3 cups pearl barley *1
Brewing Barley Tea
- 4 cups water
- 4 tbsp Roasted Barley
Instructions
Roasting Barley
- Wash the pearl barley to remove any dirt and debris.
- Drain the washing water and spread the barley grain on a mesh tray to sun dry the grain. *2
- Roast the sun dried barley in a frying pan over low to medium heat until the grain browned. *3
- Allow to cool completely then store in an airtight container.
Brewing Roasted Barley Tea
- Bring 4 cups of water to boil in a kettle or pot over high heat.
- Add 4 tbsp of roasted barley to the boiling water and simmer for 10-15 minutes over low heat.
- Turn the heat off and serve through a strainer to serve hot. *4
- Once it's cooled down, you can chill the brewed barley tea in a pitcher in the refrigerator to serve cold.
Notes
- *1 I used 500g packet of pearl barley which is equivalent to 3 cups of barley.
- *2 It sun dried and left on a sunny spot all day.
- *3 Stir them often to avoid burning the barley.
- *4 Using a tea bag which you can get from Asian grocery shops or Daiso, makes it easier to serve and clean the pot.
