Chopped Herb Salad With Farro Recipes

FARRO SALAD WITH TOMATOES AND HERBS

Steps:

• Combine the water and farro in a medium saucepan. Add 2 teaspoons of salt. Bring to a boil over high heat. Reduce the heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer until the farro is tender, about 30 minutes. Drain well, and then transfer to a large bowl to cool.
• Add the tomatoes, onion, chives, and parsley to the farro, and toss to combine.
• In a medium bowl, whisk together the garlic, vinegar, salt, pepper, and olive oil. Add the vinaigrette to the salad and toss to coat.
• The salad can be refrigerated overnight. Bring to room temperature before serving.

CHARLIE BIRD'S FARRO SALAD

Steps:

• Place the farro, apple cider, bay leaves, 2 teaspoons salt, and 2 cups water in a medium saucepan, bring to a boil, lower the heat, and simmer uncovered for about 30 minutes, until the farro is tender. (If all the liquid is absorbed before the farro is tender, add a little more water.) Drain the farro and transfer to a large serving bowl. Discard the bay leaves.
• Meanwhile, in a small measuring cup, whisk together the olive oil, lemon juice, 1 teaspoon salt, and 1/2 teaspoon pepper. Stir the vinaigrette into the warm farro and set aside for at least 15 minutes to cool.
• Before serving, stir in the pistachios, parsley, mint, tomatoes, and radishes. Add the arugula and lightly fold in the Parmesan so as not to break it up too much. Sprinkle with the sea salt and serve immediately.

CHOPPED HERB SALAD WITH FARRO

Steps:

• In a large bowl, combine parsley, mint, arugula and/or other herbs, tomatoes, scallions, farro, sumac, lemon juice and salt to taste. Refrigerate for 2 to 3 hours so the farro marinates in the lemon juice.
• Add olive oil, toss together, taste and adjust seasonings. The salad should taste lemony. Add more lemon juice if it doesn't. Serve with lettuce leaves if desired.

CHOPPED SALAD WITH HERBS

Steps:

• Combine vegetables in a bowl with the herbs. Pour the olive oil and vinegar over all and sprinkle lightly with salt and pepper. Toss the ingredients, then taste and adjust the seasoning.

• Drain and rinse under cold water; drain again. Transfer to a large bowl and add vinegar, olive oil, cucumber, tomatoes, and cilantro; stir until well combined. Season with salt and pepper; serve topped with shrimp, if desired.
