qâlîy
and parched seeds
Edible grain (typically barley or wheat) that has been roasted or parched, often by direct exposure to fire or heat. The term denotes a basic staple food in ancient times, particularly consisting of ears of grain that were harvested while still soft (in the dough stage) and then roasted, or occasionally fully ripened grain that was parched. In biblical contexts, qâlîy refers specifically to this traditional preparation, distinct from flour or baked bread.
