Thanks Linda – glad you enjoyed it and will be making it again!

Thanks for the note. I appreciate it and so will other readers. I am so happy the recipe was a hit for your party! One question, what brand of farro did you use? It’s only the Bluebird Grain Emmer Farro that takes 40 minutes. As I noted in the post–for other “farro”–cut the cooking time.

Thanks LeAnn.
Do you find the Emmer Farro berries split less than the pearled?

Thanks for this great healthy recipe

Thanks Sophie. Have fun with farro–that’s our motto!

Update: Bob’s Red Mill Farro is a pearled spelt, a different species of grain that is more of a commodity in the US. It is not the same as Emmer Farro. But you can substitute the the Bob’s Red Mill farro if you cut their suggested cooking time on the package by half.

Thanks Marci,
I bought a bag of Bob’s Red Mill farro to test with the recipe. Cut the 30 minutes cooking time in half–that’s what I did. The farro came out almost the same, except the berries split a bit, instead of staying whole. I am guessing BRM is a different strain of farro.
