Cottage Barley – One of the Most Popular Grains in Poland
Cottage barley is one of the most popular types of kasza in Poland. It is made from cleaned, hulled, and then cut barley grains sourced from our own farm.
The starch present in Cottage Barley allows for the slow release of energy into the body, which means that after consuming it, there is no urge to snack between meals. This quality makes it highly valued by active individuals and those who prioritize healthy eating.
Cottage barley is one of the best sources of β-glucan, a compound that lowers bad cholesterol levels in the blood. It is also a source of niacin (vitamin PP), which has similar effects and increases the levels of good cholesterol.
The zinc found in barley nourishes intestinal cells, thereby improving the body’s immunity.
Individuals with bladder issues should include Cottage Barley in their diet, as regular consumption can help alleviate these ailments.
Additionally, barley is a source of fiber, which aids in digestive health and regulates metabolism.
This versatile grain can be used not only to prepare traditional barley soup (krupnik) but also as an ingredient in kaszotto, salads, vegetable casseroles, and fillings. It also pairs excellently with fruits.
