My sister told me she enjoyed this farro dish, so I went looking for it. Having no luck, I found this 10 multigrain rice at my grocery store and decided to try it. It is very nutritious, medium glycemic, a healthy carb if used in moderation. The instructions on the bag told me to rinse a cup of it 2 or 3 times, then soak in water for an hour or 2, then cook in a rice cooker. It has an oatmeal texture, but I flavoured it with tomato, salt, pepper, garlic, onion, olive oil and parmesan (optional) prior to cooking it in the rice cooker with some extra water. We like it.
It is a happy feeling discovering new foods that we end up liking.
Glad that you enjoyed it!
ReplyDeleteThis looks good, glad you enjoyed it! Hugs, Valerie

Sounds very comforting, especially for this time of year.
ReplyDeleteI LOVE farro - I use it often (though I never pre-soak), but I also love to ground it into flour. Works excellent in pancakes!!!!
