WHLS Organic Split Emmer Farro

Our split emmer farro is traditionally known as farro spezatto in Italy.  Our whole grain emmer is delicately split in half to reveal a heavy textured cracked grain, similar to bulgur wheat… but more nutritious (twice the fiber) and  flavorful than common bulgur wheat (which is cooked and dried).  It cooks in 20 minutes, is light and airy with a sweet, full-bodied flavor.  This highly versatile grain can be used in soups, salads, pilafs, vegetarian burgers and stuffing.

Here are some of our favorite split emmer farro recipes: Chicken Posole with Split Farro, Greek Vegetable Pie, and Split Farro Tabbouleh Salad.  See our website for more split farro recipes.
