Is this a mixture of barley and rice, or maybe barley cooked in the manner of rice, or something completely different? Last time I saw this mentioned, the grains looked someting like the rooled barley I picked up at my local 99 Ranch Market but haven't had a chance to play with yet.

I got some good pickled ginger in my fridge right now.  No food coloring
