SPANISH FARRO
I learned how to make Spanish rice at a Mexican restaurant where I worked part-time years ago. Here, we're substituting the 'ancient' grain of farro for the rice, and I think it's even easier to cook perfectly than rice.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
- Melt butter in a heavy skillet with a tight-fitting lid over medium heat. Add onions and salt; cook and stir until onions have softened up and turned translucent, about 5 minutes. Add cumin, ancho chili powder, and chipotle chili powder; cook and stir about 1 minute. Add tomato paste; cook and stir about 2 minutes over medium heat. Add oregano and drained farro. Stir until farro is completely coated with the spice/butter mixture, about 2 minutes.
- Pour in chicken broth. Raise heat to high and bring to a simmer. As soon as mixture starts to bubble, stir, and cover. Remove from heat.
- Place pan in preheated oven and bake until farro is tender, 50 to 60 minutes. Fluff grains with a fork.

- Pressure Cooker Farro Risotto. Swap out the rice for farro in this simple and hearty risotto that tastes just as great as the original, but without all that stirring.
- Mushroom Wellington. Vegetarians will love this impressive-looking dish that packs tons of taste and nutrition into a pretty package. Leafy kale, nutty farro, sweet potato, mushrooms, and butternut squash bring a wonderful fall flavor that even avowed meat-eaters will want to get in on, no matter the time of year.
- Farro with Spice-Roasted Chickpeas and Cauliflower. This delicious vegetarian dish comes together quickly, especially if you prep with purpose. Coat chickpeas with some cumin, garlic, and smoked paprika then roast it with cauliflower and toss it all together with nutty farro.
- Farro Risotto. If you like risotto, try this easy and hearty recipe that tastes similar but doesn't require quite as much prep. Dried wild mushrooms give it an earthy depth of flavor and using farro instead of arborio rice has more toothsome texture than risotto traditionally does.
- Farro with Cumin-Roasted Carrots and Tahini. This Mediterranean dish has plenty of warming flavor thanks to a heavy dose of cumin and smoky roasted carrots.
- Farro Bread. Believe it or not, you can use farro to make a nutty, whole-grain bread that's great for sandwiches or all by itself with just a smear of butter.
- Slow Cooker Chicken with Farro and Vegetables. Use either boneless, skinless chicken thighs or breasts in this slow cooker recipe that combines the protein with farro and nutrient-packed vegetables for a simple supper.
