Why Choose This Product? 

This blend is specifically crafted for those who want to maximize the "superfood" potential of their daily meals. McCabe Organic Mixed Barley & Black Rice combines the heart-healthy fiber of barley with the legendary nutritional profile of black rice. Black rice, historically known as "Forbidden Rice," is famous for containing high levels of anthocyanins powerful antioxidants that support heart and brain health.

The synergy in this pack is exceptional: the barley provides a bouncy, satisfying chew, while the black rice adds a deep, nutty aroma and a slight natural sweetness. This blend is an excellent replacement for plain white rice, offering a lower glycemic index and a more satiating meal. It is an effortless way to upgrade your family's nutrition while enjoying a restaurant-quality grain experience at home.

The Ultimate Superfood Blend

This carefully crafted mix combines fiber-rich barley with antioxidant-dense black rice to create a nutrient-packed staple that goes beyond ordinary grains. Together, they offer a balanced source of slow-digesting carbohydrates, plant-based protein, and essential micronutrients. Designed for everyday use, this blend supports sustained energy, better digestion, and a more functional, health-focused diet without compromising on taste or versatility.

Rich, Natural Pigmentation

The deep purple tone is a natural indicator of high anthocyanin content, the same powerful antioxidants found in deeply colored fruits and vegetables. This vibrant hue is not just visually appealing; it reflects the nutritional richness inside each grain. Every serving transforms a simple meal into a colorful, wholesome, and nutrient-dense experience.

Best multigrain blend in my pantry

Rich purple color, nutty aroma, and zero junk. Easily the best multigrain blend in my pantry.

Authentic texture and top grade quality

Every pot turns out aromatic and fluffy with a great al dente chew from the barley. Storing it away from sunlight keeps the natural oils fresh. Will definitely keep purchasing this blend.

Hearty blend, allow extra cooking time

The quality of the grains is obvious right when you open the 3lb pouch: clean, dark, and zero powdery dust. Because black rice and barley are denser than standard white rice, do not skip the soaking step and make sure you give it that extra 3 to 4 minutes of low simmer time. Once cooked properly, it is wholesome and delicious.

Let it steam after cooking

Make sure to let it sit covered for the full 6 to 7 minutes after turning off the burner to let the grains finish steaming.

Kids loved the purple rice

My family usually refuses dark grains, but the mild, slightly sweet nutty flavor won everyone over. Plus, the deep color makes dinner fun for the kids. Great 3lb size that lasts a good while for weekly family dinners.

Very fragrant and clean

Nutty taste that pairs well with stir fries and curries. Keep the heat on a gentle simmer so the water absorbs evenly without burning the bottom of the pot. Great organic blend.

A wholesome meal prep staple

I make a large batch on Sundays to pair with roasted veggies and grilled chicken throughout the week. The grains hold their shape in the fridge without turning soggy or hard. Love that it is packed in the USA. Transferred mine into a glass jar in my dark pantry.

The texture and flavor are unmatched

The mix of earthy black rice and chewy barley adds so much depth compared to plain rice. I followed the cooking instructions on the bag closely: soaked the grains first, added that extra tablespoon of water per cup, and let it rest covered off the heat for 7 minutes after simmering. It came out tender with the most satisfying nutty bite.
