Hi Kala, can we soak the fsrro overnight n cook the nxt day. Can it save the cooking time.?

[@John-nb6ep]

Would it be better to cook this in a rice cooker?

[@kalahealthandwellness]

I'm not quite sure, but I'm willing to try. If you do it before I put up a video, LMK! (sorry for delayed response, I was camping this weekend)

Now this is interesting because the organic farro that I get locally says to simmer it for 10 minutes and drain, then rest for 10 minutes. I wonder why.

Has anyone used a rice cooker to make this?

i grow emmer in west canada on my organic farm

That's great Monty! What kind of conditions do emmer wheat love to thrive in?

[@montysandor8362]

@@kalahealthandwellness emmer is a very adaptive wheat that will grow where other grains will not. in sandy hilly soil or salty soil. it takes longer to grow so frost can be an issue but it naturally fights off many disease that newer wheats can not. i grow a spring emmer but there is also a winter emmer that can be fall seeded though canada is way to cold to grow winter emmer. i just boiled some emmer last night again after watching your video. i still have about 7 tonnes left so i will not starve any time soon. ty

@@kalahealthandwellness plant scientist use emmer to cross breed in to newer wheats when a new disease becomes an issue. the old emmer is a super plant with great genetics

@@montysandor8362 Thank you for sharing your knowledge! I didn't know how hardy it was. I have a new appreciation for it. Now when I eat it, I will be thinking about embodying resiliency. I appreciate you watching my video and being inspired to cook some. Wow, that is A TONNE, well, 7 tonnes! What are you going to do with all of that farro?

o do not think bobs red mill sell emmer farro. i think they sell spelt and call it farro. i could be wrong. please check what you buy

[@kalahealthandwellness]

Good to know. I didn't use Bob's Red Mill. I cooked the farro found at Sprouts bulk isle. Do you have any idea what kind of farro that would be? Thanks in advance!
