Powered byPreparation
- Step 1
In a bowl filled with warm water, soak farro overnight at room temperature.
- Step 2
In a large, shallow pan over medium heat, add 1½ tablespoons of the olive oil, the butter, shallots and garlic. Simmer 2 to 3 minutes, stirring continuously with a wooden spoon.
- Step 3
Drain farro, and add to pan. When the grains are well coated with oil and butter, start adding hot water little by little, just enough to cover the farro. Stir often, and continue adding hot water if needed.
- Step 4
After about 10 minutes of cooking, add the tomato. Keep stirring to prevent grains from sticking to pan. At this point the farro should be just about cooked, its texture al dente. Add fava beans; remove from heat.
- Step 5
Add marjoram, cheese and remaining oil. Season with salt and pepper. Stir, and serve immediately.

Seemed a little skimpy on the beans, which I enjoy, so I used a cup of dried favas, soaked overnight. And since it’s not tomato season, I used a cup of canned diced tomatoes. Otherwise, followed the recipe, and it was the most delicious comfort food.
