Overview

Barley is a cooking ingredient in Crimson Desert classified under the Grains category of gatherables. It grows quickly and stays resilient during poor harvests, making it a long-standing staple for farmers during the harsh winters of Pywel. Barley can be found across three regions: Hernand, Demeniss, and Pailune. Consuming raw Barley restores a small amount of Health.

In-Game Description

"Grows quickly and stays resilient during poor harvest. Serves as a long-standing staple for farmers during winter."

Item Properties

Where to Find

• Grocer Vendors: Available at grocery shops across the continent. Barley is widely distributed because it grows in three separate regions, making it one of the easiest grains to find in stock.

• Farming: Barley can be cultivated at the Greymane Camp farm. Its fast growth cycle makes it one of the more efficient crops to plant.

Barley's wide availability across Hernand, Demeniss, and Pailune means you will encounter it at nearly every grocer. It is the most geographically widespread grain in the game.

Cooking Uses

As a grain ingredient, Barley features in porridges, toasted grain dishes, and soups. Its resilient nature mirrors its in-game utility: a dependable base ingredient that works in many recovery items. Barley functions similarly to Lentils and Oats in cooking.

Tips

• Barley's +30 Health raw effect makes it a passable emergency snack if you run out of cooked food during exploration.

• Because Barley is sold by grocers in three different regions, you rarely need to go out of your way to restock. Pick some up whenever you stop in a town.
