4 cups of water
1 cup uncooked farro (whole, pearled, or semi-pearled)
Chopped fresh cilantro (parsley or herbs of choice (optional))

Langkah-langkah

In a medium-large sauce pan, bring the water to a boil over high heat.
Rinse the farro. Place farro in a mesh strainer and rinse under cold water until water runs clear.
Once the water is boiling, add farro and stir to combine. Reduce heat, cover, and simmer until farro is tender and chewy (15-20 minutes for pearled farro, 20-30 for semi-pearled, or 40 for whole farro). The farro will be al dente.
Drain farro. Drain away the excess water and then return the farro to saucepan. Fluff with a fork. Top with herbs as desired.
If you are using whole farro, you can soak for a few hours/overnight. Place farro in a bowl/pot and enough water to cover the grain, then cover with a lid. Refrigerate and soak for a few hours or overnight before cooking.
Cook as directed above, however, this method will only require 10-15 minutes of simmering.
