A reference to grain in which the bran layers have been removed. The removal of the bran layers results in grain with much less fiber, which is less healthful than grain that retains the bran. The advantage that pearled grain has over whole grain is that it cooks faster. It is also quite tender. Pearled grain is also known as polished grain.
