Barley bread


Undoubtedly, there’s something special about barley. Not only is it an ancient grain, but a barley corn is one of the signs that can also be found on the lotus feet of the Supreme Personality of Godhead, Lord Krishna. So it must be good! Barley flour contains no gluten, so some arrowroot was added rather than eggs to hold things together.
