This is great! I actually turned it into an Asian-style fried barley, adding in a couple Tbsp. of soy sauce at the end. Went great with teriyaki pork and asparagus. Thanks for posting!

Very yummy! I used only 3 T. of butter, and it was still great. I bet this would be good with other grains, too. Thanks for the inspiration.
