Switch rice for barley! We use pearled naked barley in place of rice in this pudding inspired by the Lebanese spiced rice puddings traditionally flavoured with cardamom, vanilla, cinnamon, orange and orange blossom water. Read more: What is naked barley? Why should we grow and eat more? |
You could use any of our wholegrains (whole oats would be especially good) in this adaptable recipe. Just bear in mind that un-pearled grains will take a little longer to cook. You could also try different spices: another good combination is cardamom, vanilla, rose water and pistachio.
"This amount would be perfect for four small portions as a pudding. However, having said that my husband ate the whole thing in one sitting, so double the recipe as needed."

This rustic galette recipe from India Mathews is a celebration of simple, honest ingredients and using the whole of the grain. Made with wholemeal flour, the pastry has a beautiful depth of flavour: nutty, buttery and subtly sweet. Beyond the taste, baking with wholemeal flour reduces food waste in the milling process.

This beginner-friendly sourdough bread is a great sandwich bread, inspired by the Danish panini-style rye bread used at Joe & The Juice and the rågkusar rye sandwich thins popular in Sweden and Finland. Slice it horizontally and fill generously with your favourite sandwich filling.

Piyaz is a traditional Turkish bean salad, but in Antalya it takes on a unique and beloved twist. More than just a simple side, it becomes a hearty, flavourful dish in its own right, rich with tahini, olive oil and cumin, layered with herbs, eggs and tomatoes. Creamy flageolet beans form the base, while the tang of lemon and vinegar keeps it bright and refreshing. Finished with fragrant dill, parsley, and a sprinkle of sumac, this is a salad that’s as satisfying as it is vibrant, perfect served alongside grilled dishes or enjoyed simply with good bread.
