I purchased a bag of farro at WHOLEFOODS because I've been hearing a lot about this new (to me) grain. What do I make w/ it? Ideas and recipes appreciated.

Read the package, see if there are any recipes or suggestions. If it's a brand name, check out the brand website.
It can be used similar to rice & risotto in recipes for soup, etc. But it takes a bit longer cooking time depending on the actual product you purchased.

It's wheat berries, I like it mixed in a salad. I'm sure you can find other ways of using it on any recipe site.

Which farro is it? Spelt, Emmer and Einkorn are all types of farro. I'm never tried emmer, but I bake with spelt and einkorn. They can be milled into flour or cooked in water and used whole in salads like tabbouli.

I make a small amount to put in my whole grain cereal. It's very chewy and good. What is leftover, freezes well too.

Seems like I've been seeing quite a few farro recipes lately. I haven't made these yet, but they looked interesting enough for me to save.

@Alter Ego I made your recipe for the Farro & Kale Salad today. Delicious!!! My husband's a meat & taters guy, but he liked it, too. Thank you for taking the time to write it all out. Much appreciated & looking forward to trying other recipe.
