I made a lovely Mushroom Risotto with Pearl Barley and my blood sugar levels didn't go through the roof as I thought they would. Has anyone else tried Pearl Barley
 
I haven't yet but was thinking of doing so. It's encouraging that it didn't spike you too much.
 
My mother used to make lamb pearl barley (badly) when we were children and I still remember my teeth bouncing of the barley and the crunchy raw bit in the middle. It was vile. I don’t think I’ll find out if I can tolerate now though!
