I had some barley at home and I dint know what to make from it.SI I thought you website must be having some recipe for sure..And believe me I never thought barley could taste soo good..I thought why not give it a try..The addition of balsamic vinegar in the dressing enhances the taste of this salad..Above all its healthy too..A very unusual salad..Would definitely make this one for a party..
