About
| Tom Yum, a hot and sour soup from Thailand with super punchy flavours, pairs well with our pearled barley or pearled spelt, both also available from Holland & Barrett stores across the UK and online. |
Pearled grains are polished to remove the outer hull and some of the bran, making them quicker to cook and softer in texture. Pearled barley and spelt both make excellent British-grown alternatives to white rice and have significantly higher levels of fibre and protein.
Rice production can produce large amounts of greenhouse gasses. Microbes that feed off decaying plant matter in flooded rice paddies produce methane, estimated to make up 8% of all global methane emissions from human activity. The rice straw left after harvesting is often burned off, further adding to the emissions.
This recipe was created in collaboration with Borough Broth and Dr. Wills to highlight our work with Holland and Barrett.

This simple sweet, sour and herby bean dish uses white coco beans to make the most of abundant seasonal courgettes in a perfect dish for summer. It's delicious served hot or cold.
Think homemade bagels are complicated? Think again! Traditionally boiled before baking for extra chewiness, these bagels are a satisfying baking project. Barley malt extract, as used in New York style bagels, adds a distinct depth; but if unavailable, you can substitute molasses or honey.
Isabella Palmer's salad of beetroot, barley and peas is a real show-stopper: textured, zippy and vibrant. The beetroot and the black barley are both full of antioxidant anthocyanins, giving them such rich colour. This salad keeps well in the fridge for batch lunches (but if you’re making ahead, add the crispy topping just before serving).
