Instructions

  1. In a large bowl or colander, rinse the farro under cold water until the water runs clear and there's no more starch left.
  2. Place the water, salt, butter, and farro into a pot. Bring it to a boil and reduce the heat to medium-low. Allow the farro to simmer for about 25 minutes.
  3. Check the doneness of the farro but giving it a taste test. If it's undercooked, let it simmer for a couple of more minutes and test it again. Once it's fully-cooked, drain the water, add the butter, and stir to combine.
