Farro: The Miracle Grain

FOOD

LINDA MOREL | JE FOOD COLUMNIST

AN ANCIENT GRAIN, farro
has become wildly popular in
recent years.
Farro originated in the Fer-
tile Crescent, where it has been
found in the tombs of Egyptian
kings and was perhaps fed to
Roman legions. Italians have
eaten farro for centuries.
Why are American sudden-
ly interested in farro?
With the continuing love
a air with Italian food, far-
ro was the natural pro-
gression a er risotto and
polenta. With nutty avor
and a chewy texture, farro
is just plain delicious.
Farro is derived from three
types of hulled wheat: spelt,
emmer and einkorn. Packing
a healthy punch, it is high in
protein and ber and beats out
brown and white rice in terms
of nutrition. It contains calci-
um, iron, magnesium, niacin
and zinc.
