Barley Flour

Price range: R39.00 through R399.00

About this product

Barley flour is a fine powder made by grinding whole barley grains (Hordeum vulgare).It contains more fibre than many other flours due to the presence of beta-glucans and is often used in combination with other flours in baking to enhance texture and flavour. Barley flour is lower in gluten than wheat flour, making it less ideal for standalone yeast-leavened breads but excellent for denser or quick-baked items.

Common Uses:

Baked Goods

  • Breads: Often used in multigrain or artisan breads. Must be mixed with wheat flour for leavened recipes.
  • Flatbreads & Tortillas: Ideal for unleavened or partially leavened flatbreads like barley chapatis or rustic pitas.
  • Pancakes & Waffles: Adds nutty undertones and softness; best when blended with all-purpose or whole wheat flour.
  • Cookies & Biscuits: Yields a tender crumb and subtle flavour; great for shortbread and rustic cookies.

Thickening Agent

  • Used in soups, stews, and gravies as a natural thickener. It imparts a slightly earthy taste while adding body.

 Pasta and Dumplings

  • Blended into homemade pasta or dumpling dough to enhance chewiness and flavour.

Batter Coating

  • Used in savoury batters for frying vegetables or fritters, where it adds crispness and golden colour.

Serving Suggestions

  • Barley flour pancakes topped with fresh fruit, maple syrup, or yogurt for a hearty breakfast.
  • Rustic biscuits or scones made with a blend of barley and all-purpose flour, served with jam and cream or savoury toppings like cheese.
  • Barley flatbread served alongside soups, lentils, or stews – especially Middle Eastern or Indian dishes.
  • Crumb topping for pies and fruit crumbles using barley flour mixed with butter and sugar for a nutty texture.
  • Hearty muffins with nuts, carrots, or berries using barley flour for a fiber-rich twist.

Storage Tips

  • Store in an airtight container in a cool, dry place. Due to its natural oil content, barley flour can become rancid if exposed to heat or moisture.
  • For extended storage, refrigerate or freeze to preserve freshness, especially if it's whole-grain.
Kindly note
  • Gluten Content: Low – not suitable for rising bread on its own.
