Farro with Shaved Brussels Sprouts

Farro is truly a special ancient grain. Also called emmer, it’s been grown for thousands of years, dating as far back as the ancient Egyptians. It’s delicious and a good source of protein and fiber. Because it hasn’t been hybridized like many other grains, it has retained a lot of nutrients and its robust taste. It’s great in place of arborio rice in risotto or as an addition to cold salads in place of pasta. Only a handful of farmers grow this chewy, nutty grain worldwide. Support the farm
