Farro Salad with Apricots and Olives
Ingredients
Pearled farro, which has had its outer layer of bran removed, will cook faster than whole or semi-pearled varieties; if using farro that still contains some or all of its bran, increase the cooking time by 10 to 15 minutes. For a milder flavor, omit the cayenne pepper.
Salt and pepper
1 1/2 cups farro
1/3 cup dried apricots, chopped
1/3 cup pitted green olives, chopped
1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
3 Tbsp. white wine vinegar
2 tsp. honey
2 tsp. minced fresh thyme
Pinch cayenne pepper
1/2 cup chopped fresh parsley
1/4 cup shelled pistachios, toasted and chopped
2 tsp. lemon zest plus 1 tsp. juice from 1 lemon
