1/2 lb Barley; soaked overnight
Sugar
2 To 3 tb. orange blossom or - rose water
1/3 c Pistachios; chopped
3/4 c Flaked almonds
3/4 c Pine nuts

Simmer barley in about 5 c. water until just tender, about 1/2 to 3/4 hour.

Add sugar to taste and cook a few minutes, stirring, until well dissolved. Add orange blossom or rose water and the nuts. Add more water if necessary, so that the barley and nuts remain suspended in a light, scented syrup.
