Pearled Farro from I Casali del Pino

Our Organic Pearled Farro is made from grains grown directly on the farm's fields, using a very short supply chain that guarantees freshness and complete traceability. Pearling, which partially removes the outer layer of the grain, makes this farro ready quickly and has a pleasantly tender texture, without the need for lengthy soaking. It's a versatile and nutritious food, ideal for those seeking a grain with an authentic flavor and respectful processing. Each package embodies the deep connection to the land and the passion of those who grow it using certified organic methods.
 
 
 

The roots of this Pearled Farro are deep in tradition

Farro is one of the oldest grains known to man, cultivated thousands of years ago in the Mediterranean basin and a staple in the diet of the Etruscan and Roman populations. It was called "far" by the Latins, and from this term comes the word "farina" (flour). For centuries, it was the grain of the legionaries, who transformed it into a thick, nutritious soup called "puls," the basis of their daily diet. Rediscovered today thanks to its nutritional qualities and rusticity, farro is returning to our tables as a symbol of authentic cuisine rooted in its origins. Growing it organically means honoring this long-standing peasant heritage.
