Ingredients
1 bag trader Joe's (10 minute Barley) (contains 3 servings)1 tablespoon dark sesame oil1 table spoon Braggs Amino Acids (You can substitute Shoyu or Tamari style soy sauces if you can't find Braggs. Regular soy would be my last choice for this)1 Tablespoon Ponzu Sauce ( if you can't find it- you can substitute 1 table spoon OJ then adjust to taste with additional soy sauce)
Directions
Bring water to rapid boil in 3 qt pot. Add barley and cook on a low boil for 15 minutes.

Drain then add all other ingredients. Mix well. The longer it stands to more flavor the barley soaks up.

You can also add a bit of kick with hot sauce, and fresh chopped herbs like chives, cilantro or basil to make it blend seamlessly with many styles of cuisine.
