Barley, pearl, boiled

Pearl barley is barley grain with the outer husk and some of the bran removed. The figures here describe pearl barley boiled in water. It mainly provides carbohydrate, with 28g per 100g, alongside 2.7g of protein and 0.6g of fat. Its energy content is 510 kJ per 100g.

Carbohydrate provides energy for the body, while protein supports the maintenance and repair of body tissues. The supplied data record only trace amounts of sugars. Salt added during cooking, or ingredients such as stock, can change the salt content of the finished dish. Barley contains gluten, so it is not suitable for people with coeliac disease. Full nutrient figures are shown in the tables below.
