Tips
There are varying methods for cooking farro, but I treat it similar to pasta. Rinse it in cold water first to remove any excess starch. Then add it to lightly salted boiling water, and drain once tender. It can take up to 40 minutes to cook, depending on the variety. Pearl farro will cook much quicker than the whole farro.
Storage
The bowl is perfect for meal prep, all the ingredients in this bowl can be kept in the fridge for a week.
These ingredients don't stand up well to freezing.
