Barley

  • Shape: Barley
  • Description: Barley shaped pasta is very small and nearly symmetrical across all axes to resemble grains of barley. It is best suited for recipes that call for small pastas with a hearty, al dente bite. While often used in soups and side dishes as substitute for rice, barley shaped pasta is a versatile addition to many recipes.

APPLICATIONS

A pasta's ingredient blend is a major factor in determining its application suitability. To ensure pastas meet your needs, reference the ingredients used in its manufacture, in many cases, blends can be customized to your specifications.

INGREDIENTS

Different shape and ingredient blends define a pasta's characteristics, which may include cook time, processing durability and more. Applications describe the most suitable and common uses for various pastas.

Thickness

For barley-shaped pastas, the positions of measurement for thicknesses are the distances between cuts at the pasta’s center. Measurements are taken using digital calipers and further verified by weight.

Width

In addition to piece-per-gram weight verification's, the outside diameters of barley-shaped pastas are measured along their thicknesses, as placed parallel within the jaws of precision digital calipers.

Length

The lengths of barley-shaped pastas are determined as the distances between cuts, and run perpendicular to their diameters. Measurements are taken using digital calipers and further verified by weight.

Moisture

To assure specified moisture, two batch samples are ground, weighed, heated in an air oven, placed in a desiccator and then re-weighed. Results are validated using two moisture validation machines.
