Timeless Natural Foods Organic Semi-Pearled Farro is a form of emmer (triticum dicoccum), an ancient grain that is a precursor to modern wheat. First cultivated by Neolithic farmers in the Fertile Crescent over 10,000 years ago, emmer was a staple across the Mediterranean for centuries before giving way to higher-yielding wheat varieties. Fortunately, it remained popular in Italian cuisine, allowing it to be rediscovered by Western chefs. Semi-pearled for quicker cooking, this farro is ready in about 20 minutes at a simmer. Delicious in salads, pilafs, and soups, farro offers a hearty, nutty flavor and chewy texture. While it does contain gluten, it may be tolerated by those with moderate sensitivities due to its ancient grain characteristics.
