Chef's notes
- The better the olive oil, the better the final product. When buying extra virgin olive oil, look closely to see the olives are only sourced from one location. Olive oils with olives sourced from multiple countries is usually a bad sign.
- If you prefer a slightly less crunchy texture, let the prepared dish sit for 5-10 minutes to allow the barley rusk to soften a bit before serving.
