The most common form of barley is pearled, so called because a deep cleft in whole-grain barley causes millers to grind the grain down until it is almost round in order to remove its bran. Pearled barley is used in soups and stews, where it takes about 45 minutes to soften. This side dish uses quick-cooking rolled barley, which is just flattened pearled barley that cooks in a fraction of the time.
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 cup chopped onions, fresh or frozen
2 teaspoons minced garlic, fresh or jarred organic
1 cup quick-cooking barley
1/2 cup white wine
2 1/2 cups chicken broth
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
2 tablespoons grated imported Parmesan cheese
2 tablespoons finely chopped Italian (flat-leaf) parsley
1 tablespoon butter, salted or unsalted

Heat the oil in a heavy, medium saucepan over medium heat. Add the onion and sauté until tender. Add the garlic and barley and stir to coat with oil. Add the wine and boil until the alcohol has boiled away, 1 to 2 minutes. Add half the chicken broth, and the salt and pepper. Cover and simmer until most of the liquid has been absorbed, about 5 minutes. Add the remaining broth, cover, and simmer until the barley is tender but still wet, about another 6 minutes. Remove from the heat and stir in the cheese, parsley, and butter before serving.
