Organic Farro Grain, 24oz (Pack of 4) - Non GMO, Vegan, Kosher

I like this Farro Grain because it's not pre-flavored with anything like cheese sauce or spices. I can cook and season it just the way I want. It has excellent flavor, cooks fast in 10 minutes, and is very nutritious. Use it like rice, add what you want to it. This is fast becoming a favorite side-dish for us! Happy with the quality and the price!

Looking for an alternative to brown rice which contains excessive arsenic. The interwebs pointed me to this grain, and I was not disappointed. I love the slightly chewy yet soft texture I could just eat it plain. Goes great with everything you normally use rice for such as black beans, stir fry, or just eating it plain as a side dish. A lot cheaper buying it in bulk here too.

I eat Farro almost daily. It is an ancient grain that is healthier than most processed grains. It has the chewiness of pasta and does a nice job soaking up what you cook it with. After gaining a lot during lockdown, and coming into it with too much weight from too much not-caring, I decided to go on a liveable food program during the pandemic (what better way to loose weight than when everyone around you is gaining?). I season a cup of water, yogurt whey or chicken stock as I choose (frequently with garlic powder, paprika, dijon mustard and yes, ground coffee benas) and rinse the farro and simmer it for about 30 minutes while simultaneously either air-frying some salmon or chopping some skinless roast chicken which I then toss into the farro with maybe some frozen peas). It's both tasty, filling and helped me drop my weight (combined with other conscious choices). Since I eat it with such consistency, I order a four pack which lasts me 2-3 months. It's a couple go-to meals that are satisfying that make all the difference on a food program.I had never tried farro before, now it's a constant staple in my pantry.

The taste of these is immeasurable be better than whole wheat kernels (AKA wheatberries). You sure to rinse them well, and/or cook in plenty of water and skim the white stuff off the top. Great with a little milk and just a dab of maple syrup stirred into the mix.

Great taste, clean with no debris

If you have never had farro you are in for a great surprise starting with the fact that this grain has more protein than others of its kind and it cooks as easy as rice. I reduce the amount of water from what it says in the package because I do not like draining the liquid that has some of the nutrients in it so, I cook 1 cup of farro in 2 1/4 cups of water. The grain fluffs beautifully and has the consistency of cooked barley. It is a great substitute for brown rice because of its higher content of fiber the glycemic index is lower. I was only sad that after I ordered it the first time (4 pack) and went to re-order the price had gone much much higher. It is a shame because at that price it will not become a favorite at America's tables.

Farro is possibly the most-complicated grain for consumers to understand. Is it whole? Is it pearled? Semi-pearled? Is it spelt? Emmer? Einkorn? I happen to be very knowledgeable about farro and have cooked with it for more than 2 decades. Bob’s description says “lightly scratched.” That description doesn’t help us. However, the packaging clearly indicates that this is pearled farro. Sometimes I want whole-grain farro—and I fully understand that it requires overnight soaking and much longer cooking—and sometimes I want a 15-minute soak while I prep/cook its companions, and a much shorter cooking time. These days, I cook farro in my Instant Pot. Here’s a typical Mary use of Bob’s farro that will go into a vegetarian casserole, probably with beans (farro loves beans!): 1) use the IP to caramelize 3-4 onions; 2) use the 1+ cups of onion juice produced by that process to soak for 10-15 minutes 1 cup of Bob’s farro, adding water if necessary to equal 2 cups of liquid; 3) pressure-cook the farro mixture in the IP on high for 13 minutes. Perfection! Finally, I can’t buy Bob’s farro in stores here where I live in the middle of U.S. nowhere, so I’m so grateful that I can buy it via Amazon.

Faro is an interesting alternative to rice, couscous, oats, and barley as a cooking grain.A slightly nutty taste, which I find pleasant. Use in place of (almost) any grain; its cooking requirements are different, so a little experimentation may help.If you find a local supplier, buy there. I now buy it at Lazy Acres near my house, instead of ordering by mail.

Buena calidad
