Servings: 4

Preparation duration: -1 minutes

Cooking duration: -1 minutes

 

Ingredients:

1/3 cup extra virgin olive oil

8 ounces (250 gr) farro or spelt

parmesan shaved into ribbons

1 pomegranate

1 small head of radicchio sliced thinly

salt and pepper

1 truffle mushroom

2-3 tablespoons (30ml) vinegar

4 ounces (100gr) toasted walnuts

Equipment:

peeler

Cooking instruction summary:

  1. In plenty of cold water boil farro until al dente (cooked but with a bite) - about 20-35 minutes. Feel free to add some vegetable scraps if available (unused piece of carrot, onion, celery, etc.)
  2. Drain the farro in a colander & remove vegetable scraps if used. Allow to cool for a few minutes.
  3. In a large separate bowl combine the farro with radicchio, nuts & pomegranate seeds. Give it a good mix and season with salt & pepper.
  4. For the dressing: Drizzle over the salad a couple tablespoons of vinegar followed by three times the amount of extra virgin olive oil.
  5. Give it another good mix.
  6. To finish, give it a good shave of fresh truffles, if not available truffle salt or oil works well too. Top with a few pulls of a potato peeler across a wedge of parmesan.
  7. Allow to sit for at least 20 minutes up to a day - it needs a little time for it to all come together.
  8. Before serving - give it one last good stir, taste & adjust the seasoning - making sure the dressing is balanced (not too vinegary or oily).

Food Joke

John invited his mother over for dinner. During the meal, his mother couldn't help noticing how attractive and shapely the housekeeper was. Over the course of the evening, she started to wonder if there was more between John and the housekeeper than met the eye. Reading his mom's thoughts, John volunteered, "I know what you must be thinking, but I assure you, my relationship with my housekeeper is purely professional." About a week later, the housekeeper came to John and said, "Ever since your mother came to dinner, I've been unable to find the beautiful silver gravy ladle. You don't suppose she took it, do you?" John said, "Well, I doubt it, but I'll write her a letter just to be sure." So he sat down and wrote: "Dear Mother, I'm not saying you 'did' take a gravy ladle from my house, and I'm not saying you 'did not' take a gravy ladle. But the fact remains that one has been missing ever since you were here for dinner." Several days later, John received a letter from his mother which said "Dear Son, I'm not saying that you 'do' sleep with your housekeeper, and I'm not saying that you 'do not' sleep with your housekeeper. But the fact remains that if she were sleeping in her own bed, she would have found the gravy ladle by now. Love, Mom"
