No, not with the hulls. Barley has 2 outer layers, the outermost hull is inedible. Inside that, you'll have what is called "hulled barley," that still has a bran skin, which is totally edible and super good for you. If you remove that bran layer, you're left with "pearled" or "pearl barley," which is still really high in fiber and super good for you.

To remove hulls, you will thresh then winnow the barley. This is a tedious and strenuous process, suitable for another Answersquestion.

Once hulled, here's how I would cook it for a breakfast cereal:

  • Boil 6 cups of water with a big pinch of salt
  • Add 2 cups hulled barley, reduce heat to medium-low
  • Cook, covered, for 50min - 1 hr, until barley isn't crunchy
  • Drain
  • Return cooked barley to warm pot on super low heat
  • Add 3tblsp butter, 1/2 cup brown sugar, 1/3 cup heavy cream, 1tsp vanilla extract until sugar is dissolved and butter is melted
  • Stir & Serve

...for a yummy addition, try this:

In a small bowl, cover handfull of raisins with spiced rum (or water if you're a wussy) and microwave for 1 min. Drain and add to your barley cereal. Mmm.
