Ingredients

Servings

Salad

  • 2 cups sliced cucumber 1 medium cucumber
  • 1/4 cup fresh basil leaves
  • 1/4 cup fresh flat-leaf parsley leaves
  • 1/4 cup fresh cilantro leaves
  • 1 small shallot chopped
  • Zest from 1 lemon
  • Pinch of salt
  • 1 cup cooked farro

Dressing

  • 1 tablespoons sherry vinegar
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil

  • 1/4 teaspoon salt

Instructions

  1. Cut the cucumber into half moons and place in a bowl. On a cutting board, roughly chop the herbs. Add the shallot, zest, and salt. Continue chopping until everything is in a fine mince (like you would have if you were making gremolata). Place the herb mixture and farro in the bowl with the cucumbers.
  2. In a small jar, combine the ingredients for the dressing and shake well. Pour the dressing over the salad and toss until everything is well combined.
  3. Serve the salad immediately or store in an airtight container for up to 24 hours.
