Nutty and chewy, with a toothsome bite that makes it an able addition to dishes of all kinds, farro typically needs to be cooked for 30-45 minutes. Our Italian supplier, however, uses an innovative process to partially pre-cook this ancient grain, so that Trader Joe’s Quick-Cook Farro can be ready in about 10 minutes—truly! 

From there, it’s adaptable to just about any meal idea you might have in mind. Add this Quick-Cook Farro to Soup for an extra dose of protein and fiber. Give it a supporting role in a grain salad for lunch—its hearty texture means in won’t get mushy if you’re taking said lunch on the go. Or, make it the base of a cozy, seasonally appropriate skillet dinner of Chicken Sausage and Apples.

With Quick-Cook Farro’s  impressive nutritional profile and quick-cooking convenience, you might expect an outsized price tag to match—not so at your neighborhood Trader Joe’s!
