{"product_id":"organic-pearled-farro","title":"Organic Pearled Farro","description":"\u003cp\u003eOur Organic Pearled Farro (pronounced FAHR-oh) is a nutritious and delicious addition to your diet. It is the quickest-cooking farro available. Farro fed the Roman Legions, was used as money during the height of the Roman Empire, and Farro kernels were even found in Egyptian tombs! So pharaohs cherished farro too (pun intended).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2 id=\"how-to-cook-pearled-farro\"\u003eHow to Cook Pearled Farro\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUse 3 parts liquid to 1 part farro. Bring water or broth to a rolling boil, and then reduce the heat to medium-low. Add the farro and let it cook for 20 minutes. For a chewy texture, cook for less time. For a mushy texture, cook longer.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2 id=\"what-s-farro-like-\"\u003eWhat's Farro Like?\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePearled farro is similar to a lighter brown rice and has a complex, nutty taste with oat and barley undertones.  However, farro lacks the heaviness of many whole-wheat grains and tastes more elegantly.  Farro behaves much like risotto, but doesn't become gummy.  Instead, it retains its tender, distinct bite, even if it sits awhile after cooking.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2 id=\"health-benefits-of-farro\"\u003eHealth Benefits of Farro\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFarro is \u003cstrong\u003erich in fiber, protein, iron, magnesium, and vitamin B\u003c\/strong\u003e, and is almost always grown without chemical pesticides or fertilizers. With 4 grams of protein per serving, it's a great plant-based protein source for vegans and vegetarians. Because it is so easily digested and low in gluten, farro can often be eaten by people who are normally gluten-intolerant.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2 id=\"our-registered-dietitian-s-top-pick\"\u003eOur Registered Dietitian's Top Pick\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOur Registered Dietitian and Health Nut likes to use this ancient grain especially for salads.
