This is the most common form of barley, but not the most nutritious. While hulled barley loses only the thick outer hull in the milling process, pearl barley is stripped of the nutritious bran layer as well, leaving just the "pearl" inside. Despite this, it's still fairly nutritious. It takes about an hour to cook. Substitutes: arborio rice (not as chewy) OR orzo OR buckwheat groats (Works well in pilafs.)
Corn Grits-Polenta makes a popular breakfast, especially in the Eastern and Southern states. Many gourmet Italian and Mediterranean restaurants feature our polenta. The recipes on our packages are simple and delicious. Also makes a delightful hot cereal served with milk and honey or brown sugar.

Oat groats are whole, minimally processed oats. Because they have not been extensively processed, they retain a high nutritional value, and they can be used in a variety of ways. Use them in breads and other baked goods, as porridge, or in soups and stews.
Quinoa is particularly high in fiber and in non saturated fats; and is an important source of calcium, iron, phosphorus, vitamin E and part of the B complex. The well-balanced mix of amino acids makes it comparable to milk's nutritional value. Compared to white Quinoa, black Quinoa has a rougher skin.
