FARRO SALAD WITH TOMATOES AND HERBS - GIADA DE LAURENTIIS

Steps:

• In a medium saucepan, combine the water, farro, and salt, then turn heat to high and bring it all to a boil.
• When it has come to a boil, reduce the temperature to medium low, cover, and let simmer until the farro is tender, about 30 minutes.
• Remove from heat, drain mixture well, then pour it all into a large ceramic or porcelain bowl and set aside to let cool.
• When cooled, add the chopped tomatoes, onion, chives, and parsley, tossing to combine.
• In a separate bowl, combine the garlic, vinegar, pepper, and olive oil, and whisk well until incorporated to make the dressing.
• Combine the dressing with the farro mixture, tossing it to coat well; season to taste with salt.
• Note: this salad can be made the day before and stored in the refrigerator- Giada suggests serving it at room temperature, so just make sure to take it out of the fridge an hour before serving, or taste it cold to see if you like it that way, too; also, a few sliced black and/or green olives can be a nice addition.

FARRO AND TOMATO SALAD WITH HERBS

Steps:

• In a medium saucepan, bring farro, apple juice, water, salt, bay leaves to a simmer. Simmer, stirring occasionally and adding extra liquid if needed, until farro is tender and liquid is absorbed, about 30-35 minutes. Remove from heat, cool, then discard bay leaves.
• In a salad bowl, whisk together olive oil, lemon juice and a pinch of salt. Add farro, pistachios and mix well. This mixture will keep for up to 4 hours at room temperature or overnight in the refrigerator (bring to room temperature before serving). Just before serving, fold in herbs, tomatoes, radish slices and taste to adjust seasoning.

FARRO SALAD WITH TOMATOES AND HERBS

Steps:

• In a medium saucepan, combine 4 cups water and farro. Bring to a boil over high heat. Cover and simmer over medium-low heat until the farro is almost tender, about 20 minutes. Add 2 teaspoons of salt and simmer until the farro is tender, about 10 minutes longer. Drain well, then transfer to a large bowl and let cool.
• In a medium bowl, mash the garlic with 1/4 teaspoon of salt to make a paste. Whisk in the vinegar and 1/4 teaspoon of pepper, then the oil. Add the tomatoes, onion, chives, and parsley to the farro and toss to combine. Add the vinaigrette to the salad and toss to coat. Season the salad with more salt and pepper to taste. (The salad can be made 1 day ahead. Cover and refrigerate. Bring to room temperature before serving.)

FARRO AND TOMATO SALAD

Steps:

• Bring water to a boil in a saucepan. Add farro and reduce heat, cover, and simmer until farro is tender and liquid has been absorbed, up to 40 minutes.
• Fold cooked farro, great northern beans, cherry tomatoes, parsley, Parmesan cheese, lemon juice, salt, and black pepper together gently in a bowl and stir to combine.

CHOPPED HERB SALAD WITH FARRO

Steps:

• In a large bowl, combine parsley, mint, arugula and/or other herbs, tomatoes, scallions, farro, sumac, lemon juice and salt to taste. Refrigerate for 2 to 3 hours so the farro marinates in the lemon juice.
• Add olive oil, toss together, taste and adjust seasonings. The salad should taste lemony. Add more lemon juice if it doesn't. Serve with lettuce leaves if desired.

ARTICHOKE AND OLIVE FARRO SALAD

Steps:

• Set aside a sheet pan or a large plate. Bring a medium pot of well-salted water to a boil. Add the farro and give it a stir. Reduce the heat to medium-high and cook according to package instructions, skimming off any foam that rises, until the grains are tender and plump. Depending on the type of farro used, this can take anywhere from 15 to 45 minutes. Drain the farro and transfer to the sheet pan or plate; spread out and cool to room temperature, 10 to 15 minutes. (If the farro is left to cool in the strainer, it will keep cooking, take longer to cool and turn mushy.)
• Transfer the farro to a medium mixing bowl. Add the vinegar, oil and ½ teaspoon salt, and stir to combine. Add the olives, artichoke, feta, dill, red onion and chives, and season with black pepper to taste. Stir and taste. Add more salt, vinegar and oil, as needed.
• Serve right away or store in the fridge for up to 2 days. The farro will absorb the vinegar and oil the longer it sits. Adjust seasoning, vinegar and oil before serving.
