I added some fresh herbs and used my homemade chicken stock and freshly ground nutmeg (love my nutmeg grinder) and found this flavorful. -
I added one cube of chicken bullion and it still didn't really have a good flavor to it. Sorry. -
A nice way to enjoy barley that would allow a lot of creativity. I found this took more like 45 minutes to cook along with the 10 minutes of preparation. I'd recommend punching up the flavor a little with your favorite seasonings. -
very tasty and a great way to increase your fiber intake.

<p>My rating system: (I don't like giving bad reviews, so if I don't like it, I'll just not review it.) <br /><br />5 Stars OMG, this is one of the most amazing things I've ever eaten! I can't stop eating it, and I've eaten myself into a food coma. <br /><br />4 Stars The recipe is wonderful as is. I can't think of a single improvement and I will most likely make it again. <br /><br />3 Stars This needed a little *something*something*. I might make it again, but will add my own improvements if I do. <br /><br />I love to eat! And I love to cook. I tend to take over the kitchen when I get in there. Even the dog knows the command get outta my kitchen! LOL. Cooking for other people and trying new recipes or foods is FUN! I have a small (but growing quickly!!) cookbook collection and one of my favorite things to do is to read recipes and plan meals. Rachael Ray, Horn of the Moon and Moosewood are favorites of mine. <br /><br />We spend a lot of time outdoors camping, hiking and backpacking. Yup. I cook in the woods too! I've made deals with my hiking buddies... If they carry in my food, I'll cook for them. I recently published a backpacking cookbook.
