Farro is a versatile and nutritious ancient grain that adds a delightful texture and nutty flavor to your dishes. In this guide, we will walk you through the steps to cook farro in the Bimby, guaranteeing perfectly cooked grains every time.

What is Farro?

Before we dive into the cooking process, let’s first understand what farro is. Farro is a type of wheat grain that has been cultivated and enjoyed for centuries. It is commonly used in Mediterranean and Italian cuisine, loved for its chewy texture and earthy taste. Farro is rich in fiber, protein, and various nutrients, making it a healthy addition to your meals.

Ingredients:

  • 1 cup of farro
  • 2 cups of water or vegetable broth
  • A pinch of salt

Step-by-Step Guide:

1. Start by rinsing the farro under cold water to remove any impurities and excess starch.

2. In your Bimby, add the rinsed farro, water or vegetable broth, and a pinch of salt.

3. Close the lid of the Bimby and set it to cook on high pressure for 10 minutes.

4. Once the cooking time is complete, allow the pressure to release naturally for about 5 minutes. Then, use the quick-release valve to release any remaining pressure.

5. Open the lid carefully, as hot steam will escape. Using a fork, fluff the cooked farro to separate the grains.

6. Your perfectly cooked farro is now ready to be used in salads, soups, or as a side dish to accompany your main course.

Tips and Variations:

  • For added flavor, you can cook your farro in vegetable broth instead of water.
  • Feel free to adjust the cooking time depending on your desired level of tenderness. If you prefer softer grains, extend the cooking time by a few minutes.
  • Leftover cooked farro can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
  • Experiment with different seasonings and herbs to enhance the taste of your cooked farro.
