Cooking instruction summary:
Procedures 1 For the dressing: Whisk together all of the ingredients and set aside. 2 For the farro salad: Bring a large pot of water to a boil over high heat. Add the farro, reduce heat to maintain a simmer, and cook according to the directions on the packaging, anywhere from 15 minutes to an hour. When done, drain in a colander or sieve, rinse under cold water, and set aside to drain. 3 Meanwhile, using a small pairing knife, cut around the stem of each pepper, removing the stem along with all the seeds. Set a grill pan over high heat. Place the peppers on the grill pan and cook, flipping occasionally, until totally black on all sides, 20 to 30 minutes. When done, transfer to a bag and set aside for a few minutes to steam. Once cool, remove the blackened skin, and cut the flesh into 3/8-inch-wide slices. 4 In a large mixing bowl, combine the cooked farro, red pepper slices, olives, thyme, scallions, most of the feta, and the dressing. Toss gently, and season to taste with salt. Serve with the remaining feta and a sprinkle of paprika.
