Lenneberg (1967) sees the critical period starting at the age of 2 and ending around puberty, a period, which coincides with the brain lateralisation process, which is the specialisation of the dominant hemisphere of the brain language functions. Lenneberg (1967) cited a wide evidence of changes in the brain taking place during this period.
Here are the steps on how to cook barley. 1  First rinse barley with a strainer. Remove any debris as you strain it. 2  Soak the barley overnight in water. Use about two cups for each cup of barley. 3  When you are ready to boil your barley, choose from either broth or water.  For every 1 cup of barley, use 2 Â½ to 3 cups of 1  liquid. Bring the liquid to a boil.
Add the soaked barley, return to a boil, reduce heat, cover and let simmer for at least 45 minutes. One of the most important things to note, no matter the method of cooking, is to NOT ADD SALT until the barley is completely done cooking! The salt can keep the barley from becoming tender.
