Jobs Tears (Chinese Pearl Barley) is a type of grain native to East Asia that has long been appreciated as a nutritious food source as well as an ornament. The name refers to the tear drop shape of each grain and the biblical story of a man named Job who suffered greatly. Depending on where you live this grain may be called Christ's Tears, Mary's Tears or any number of people's tears but its most common name is Job's Tears. Beading This grain is often utilized as beads for rosaries and necklaces. They have very hard shells and polish easily. They also have a natural hole going through their center making them perfect for beading. The Plant Job’s Tears is related to corn and grows on grassy plants standing 4-6 feet tall. Like corn, there are several varieties cultivated for different purposes. Some varieties can be boiled and eaten like rice or as cereal. Others are better for making flour. They all taste slightly sweet (like a mix of corn and white rice) and are high in protein. Ways to Eat It The most common way to eat Job's Tears is as a side-dish or in soups but it can also be used to make breads, pastas, and porridges. East Asian countries also use it for making drinks similar to coffee and tea. Mislabeled Job's Tears are often mistakenly labeled Chinese Pearled Barley in Asian markets. If you're not sure what you are buying then check the price. They are about five times the price of Barley. Second, check the size of the grains. If they are much larger and rounder than Barley - they are not Barley. How to CookCombine 2 parts grain to 1 part liquid. Bring to a boil then simmer, uncovered, 50-60 minutes or until water has evaporated. Fluff with fork and let stand 5 minutes. Note: Job's Tears can be substituted for Barley in any Barley recipe.
