This creamy farro salad brings together nutty farro, sweet raisins, roasted pine nuts, and fresh parsley for a simple dish with great texture and flavor. Everything gets tossed in a silky cornmilk dressing made with garlic, lemon juice, salt, and pepper. The cornmilk adds a gentle creaminess and subtle sweetness that coats the farro beautifully.

Serve it warm or chilled. It’s a hearty side dish, but satisfying enough to enjoy on its own.

Cook Mode

Note, these instructions are written assuming the standard serving size, since you have modified the number of servings, these steps may need to be modified for best results

Add the pine nuts to a dry nonstick pan over medium-low heat. Toast for about 5 minutes, shaking the pan occasionally, until lightly golden and fragrant. Set aside.
Cook the farro according to the package directions, using chicken broth instead of water.
In a bowl, whisk together the cornmilk, pressed garlic, lemon juice, salt, and pepper.
Add the cooked farro to a large bowl. Stir in the raisins and toasted pine nuts. Season with a little more salt and pepper to taste.
Pour the cornmilk dressing over the farro mixture and stir to combine. Let the salad sit for about 5 minutes so the farro can absorb the dressing and become creamy.
Stir in the chopped parsley.
Serve warm, or refrigerate and serve chilled.

Notes

Use about 2 tablespoons of parsley for a lighter herb flavor, or more if you love a fresh, herby finish.
