• Fontana FORMIELLO Farro is an ancient grain with a nutty, slightly sweet flavour and a chewy texture. It stays tender and distinct when cooked, deliciously \u201cal dente\u201d.
• Our Farro is hulled using a gentler process that leaves the germ and bran intact. Compared to pearled and semi-pearled Farro that are usually found in the market our Farro takes longer to cook and keeps its chewy texture. The trade-off is an increased nutritional content. Pearling removes the indelible hull that surrounds the grain but in the process also scours off part (semi-pearled) or all (pearled) of the germs and barn making these products cook quicker and being softer to the taste.
• The cooking time for our Farro is 30 minutes from the time the water with the Farro in it starts boiling Every lot of our Farro is carefully controlled and test cooked when packed to assure the consistency of the quality and texture of the product.
• Use Fontana FORMIELLO Farro as a base for salads or at the place of the rice in risotto recipes to make farrotto. Serve it hot for breakfast with sliced peaches and berries, or as a dessert with ricotta cheese and a drizzle of honey.
• High in protein and rich in fiber.
