Ingredients
  • 10 ounces (by weight, 250 g) cracked farro
  • 1/2 pound fresh ricotta
  • 3 eggs
  • 3 heaping tablespoons grated Parmigiano
  • A small bunch parsley
  • 1/4 teaspoon freshly grated nutmeg
  • Salt & pepper to taste
  • Butter
  • Bread crumbs

  • Prep Time: 15 minutes
  • Cook Time: 100 minutes


  • Total Time: 115 minutes


Preparation
Prepare the farro: Wash it well, picking out impurities such as bits of chaff, pebbles, or bad grains, and soak it for at least 8 hours. Next, cook it in a pressure cooker for about 45 minutes. Blend it and combine it with the remaining ingredients except the butter and the bread crumbs. Use them to lightly grease and coat a 9-inch pan, pour the farro mixture into it, and bake it in a 370 F (180C) oven for about 40 minutes. This will work well as a second course, with a tossed salad.

Yield: 6 servings savory farro pie.
