Instructions

  1. Rinse: Rinse and drain the farro.
  2. Boil: Bring water to a boil in a medium pot. Add farro and salt, reduce to a simmer, cover, and cook. It is finished when farro is tender but still a little chewy (about 15 minutes for pearled farro, 30 minutes for semi-pearled, 45 minutes for whole).
  3. Drain: Drain excess water from the pot, then fluff farro with a fork.
