What it is
Organic barley flour is made from whole barley grains that have been cleaned, milled, and sifted. Barley is a cereal grain grown worldwide, known for its nutty flavor and chewy texture. Organic means it's grown without synthetic pesticides or fertilizers.
Why it's used
Barley flour adds a slightly sweet, nutty flavor and can improve the texture of baked goods. It's often used in breads, cookies, pancakes, and as a thickener for soups and stews. Manufacturers use it for its nutritional content and flavor.
Health notes
Barley flour is considered a whole grain and a good source of fiber, vitamins, and minerals. The FDA lists barley as Generally Recognized As Safe (GRAS). Regulatory bodies like JECFA and EFSA have evaluated barley and its components. While generally considered safe and healthy as part of a balanced diet, like all foods, excessive consumption of any single ingredient is not recommended.
Allergen info
Barley contains gluten, which is a protein that can cause adverse reactions in people with celiac disease or gluten sensitivity. Barley is not one of the 9 FDA major allergens.
