I've served farro in restaurants before, but I've never paid much attention to the way the chefs prepare it. I'm tucking this post in my back pocket.

Kind of exactly what I was thinking.

Oh no, you weren't wrong. Anchovies on a salad is fine by me. I'm just talking about my idea of throwing crappy, oil-soaked sardines onto fresh greens.

Gotcha. I usually use anchovies if the salad I'm making is bland as far as seasoning. The type of saltiness in the anchovy is so good to me.

I grabbed some farro at the store and cooked a cup to go along with this salad. Holy shit, this is great stuff. I cooked straight up (with just a little salt) this time around to get a sense of what's going on with it, but I can see how this could be a versatile addition to my pantry. Farro and blueberries wouldn't be a bad breakfast, now that I think about it.

Farro has made it onto my regular grocery list since we spoke about it. I made a picnic the other day and had plenty of berries left over, so I threw them in a bowl of farro the next morning with brown sugar. The stuff is amazing.

I've also really been into capers lately. I'll throw some of that on a salad with feta and have no need for a dressing. (I've never really needed a dressing anyway, preferring oil or lemon juice most of the time.)

Really digging this bowl at the moment. Quinoa, local mix of greens, avocado, kidney beans and goat cheese. Just squeezed some lime on it but wish I also had some fish. Next time.
