Steps:
- In a medium saucepan, combine the water, farro, and salt, then turn heat to high and bring it all to a boil.
- When it has come to a boil, reduce the temperature to medium low, cover, and let simmer until the farro is tender, about 30 minutes.
- Remove from heat, drain mixture well, then pour it all into a large ceramic or porcelain bowl and set aside to let cool.
- When cooled, add the chopped tomatoes, onion, chives, and parsley, tossing to combine.
- In a separate bowl, combine the garlic, vinegar, pepper, and olive oil, and whisk well until incorporated to make the dressing.
- Combine the dressing with the farro mixture, tossing it to coat well; season to taste with salt.
- Note: this salad can be made the day before and stored in the refrigerator- Giada suggests serving it at room temperature, so just make sure to take it out of the fridge an hour before serving, or taste it cold to see if you like it that way, too; also, a few sliced black and/or green olives can be a nice addition.

FARRO SALAD WITH TOMATOES AND HERBS
Farro is a type of wheat that was an important component of the Roman Empire's diet, but it fell somewhat out of favor when more refined wheat products became plentiful in Italy. You'll still find it on a lot of Italian tables, though, and especially in soups and salads such as this one. Farro is available in Italian markets and gourmet grocery stores, but brown rice or barley could also be used in this recipe.

Steps:
- In a medium saucepan, combine 4 cups water and farro. Bring to a boil over high heat. Cover and simmer over medium-low heat until the farro is almost tender, about 20 minutes. Add 2 teaspoons of salt and simmer until the farro is tender, about 10 minutes longer. Drain well, then transfer to a large bowl and let cool.
- In a medium bowl, mash the garlic with 1/4 teaspoon of salt to make a paste. Whisk in the vinegar and 1/4 teaspoon of pepper, then the oil. Add the tomatoes, onion, chives, and parsley to the farro and toss to combine. Add the vinaigrette to the salad and toss to coat. Season the salad with more salt and pepper to taste. (The salad can be made 1 day ahead. Cover and refrigerate. Bring to room temperature before serving.)

FARRO WITH BLISTERED TOMATOES, PESTO AND SPINACH
Here is an Italian-inspired recipe that uses store-bought or homemade pesto to season farro, which is then tossed with fresh spinach, roasted tomatoes, red onions and mozzarella for a complete vegetarian meal. Make it with fresh-from-the-market cherry tomatoes when they're in season, but during the rest of the year, use grape tomatoes, as they tend to be more flavorful than cherry during the colder months. If you'd like, substitute arugula, or cooked broccoli rabe or kale, for the spinach. It tastes delicious warm or cold the next day - and topping it with shrimp, chicken or scallops can make it feel new again. Before reheating, add a bit more spinach, drizzle it with a little olive oil and give it a good stir.

Steps:
- Heat the oven to 400 degrees. Bring a large covered pot of well-salted water to a boil. Add the farro and adjust the heat to maintain a medium boil. Cook uncovered, stirring occasionally to make sure nothing is sticking to the bottom, until tender and not too chewy, about 30 minutes.
- Meanwhile, on a sheet pan, combine the tomatoes and onion wedges with the oil, making sure everything is well coated and glistening, then season with salt, pepper and the red-pepper flakes. Roast until the tomatoes blister and slightly deflate, 25 to 30 minutes.
- When the farro is done, drain, then pour into a serving bowl or back into the pot. Toss with some olive oil, then mix in the pesto. Add the lemon zest and juice, then stir in the spinach. Set aside to cool slightly.
- Scrape the onions, tomatoes and their juices into the farro; season with salt and pepper as needed. Add the cheese, if using, then garnish with herbs and serve.
FARRO SALAD WITH TOMATOES AND ROMANO BEANS
If you are unfamiliar with farro, here's a primer: Farro is a whole wheat berry with a complex, nutty taste and a hearty texture. In cooking you can use it interchangeably with spelt or wheat berries, though farro is sometimes softer than spelt or wheat berries when cooked. Cook the grains in at least 3 times their volume of salted water or stock for 50 minutes, or until some of the grains begin to splay. Turn off the heat and allow to sit for 15 to 30 minutes, then drain. A cup of uncooked farro will yield three cups cooked.

Steps:
- In a large bowl combine the farro and tomatoes.
- Whisk together the lemon juice, vinegar, mustard, garlic, salt, pepper, and olive oil. Toss with the farro and tomatoes and set aside.
- Bring a pot of water to a boil, and fill a bowl with ice water. When the water comes to a boil, add a generous amount of salt and add the green beans. Cook 4 to 5 minutes, until just tender. Transfer to the ice water, then drain. Dry on paper towels.
- Shortly before serving, add the beans to the farro mixture, along with the chopped herbs. Toss together, taste and adjust seasoning. Sprinkle the goat cheese over the top and serve.

CHOPPED HERB SALAD WITH FARRO
This dish is modeled on a Middle Eastern tabouli. Add just one cup of cooked farro or spelt to a generous mix of chopped parsley, mint, arugula and other herbs like basil or dill. Notice that I'm calling this dish a chopped herb salad with farro and not a farro salad with chopped herbs. It's modeled on an authentic Middle Eastern tabouli, which should be all about the parsley, with just a small amount of bulgur. I add just one cup of cooked farro or spelt to a generous mix of chopped parsley, mint, arugula and other herbs like basil or dill. There are also chopped tomatoes in the mix, all of it tossed with lemon juice and olive oil.

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.
