Black Barley

You remember the box I received from FedEx that had the large "Do Not Irradiate!" sticker attached? This was one of the items in that box. I'd never seen anything like it.

It was very good in a soup with black turtle beans, crimini mushrooms, sautéed onions, tamari, and lots of spices. The sauce was a deep chocolate brown. Good, baby, good. I'll order from Gold Mine again.
