What is Hordeum Chilense?

Hordeum Chilense, commonly referred to as wild barley, is a species of grass that is considered the wild ancestor of cultivated barley. This plant is native to regions in the Middle East and parts of South America. Known scientifically as Hordeum spontaneum, it contains gluten proteins similar to those found in modern cereal barleys, making it unsuitable for individuals with celiac disease or gluten sensitivity.
