Vincenzo’s Top Tip To Make Farro Seafood Salad
Add a little bit of water
Try and make sure there is a little bit of water left because this creates the sauce.
Cook the farro ahead of time
Farro takes longer to cook than other grains, so it’s best to cook it ahead of time and let it cool before adding it to the salad.
Use fresh seafood
The quality of the seafood can make a big difference in the taste of the dish. Try to use fresh seafood that is in season for the best results.
Add the dressing just before serving
To prevent the salad from becoming soggy, add the dressing just before serving. This will keep the farro and seafood from getting too soft and mushy.
