    Hats off to both Christa and Mike, thanks for the information, I think you may have introduced the worlds oldest cultivated crop to our farm.

    Can this grain be prepared in a rice cooker?

    Yes, PaulBuffalo, if you use the second or third version of farro- either , “semi-pearled emmer” (or perlato in Italian) or “cracked emmer” (or spezzato in Italian). Depending on the type of rice cooker you have, you may need to unplug it before it's done with its timed cycle when cooking spezzato.

    Deliking,

    Thanks for your comment. I have cooked with Farro for years and I found this information fascinating. I am pleased to share it with BRO's readers.
