Yupik Organic Farro, 2.2 lb, Non-GMO, Vegan, KosherUSDA Organic

I recently embarked upon a gastronomic journey with Yupik Farro, a product I affectionately dub "the grain that time forgot, but health nuts remembered." Having grown weary of quinoa's tireless campaign to invade every salad, soup, and smoothie bowl, I was cautiously optimistic that Yupik Farro would liberate me from culinary monotony.Opening the package felt like unearthing an ancient artifact—was this bagged in a Bronze Age market stall? However, after simmering it to perfection (or near perfection, considering my questionable culinary prowess), I was pleasantly surprised by its robust, chewy texture, which politely challenged my jaw in a way quinoa never dared.The taste? Positively rustic, as if Yupik had harvested grains directly from an Italian hillside untouched since Caesar roamed freely. Every bite had a nutty undertone reminiscent of simpler times, possibly pre-WiFi.As for nutritional prowess, Farro smugly boasts a rich profile of fiber, protein, and vitamins, effortlessly shaming white rice into dietary oblivion. Yes, Yupik Farro is a little hipster, somewhat pretentious, and might casually judge your pantry choices—but honestly, I'm into it.Ultimately, Yupik Farro is the grain that boldly whispers, "I’m not quinoa, and I'm totally okay with that." And to be perfectly candid, so am I.

This is a delicious, high quality farro. I did rinse it before cooking but the water ran pretty clear right from the get-go, so the grain powder in the bag is minimal. I like to cook it in the Instant Pot since it’s a little quicker. The nutty, chewy texture is just right and goes extremely well with such a variety of dishes! This was a great value buy.

Farro is a delicious and nutritious grain with a slightly nutty flavor and a chewy texture. It’s great in salads, soups, or as a hearty side dish. Cooks up easily and adds a nice depth to meals. A fantastic alternative to rice or quinoa!

In the world of ancient grain farro is one of if not the oldest and IMO is one of the best tasting as well. I use this brand of farro as it is whole farro meaning it has all of the grain, the hull, germ and endosperm and has not been "pearled", meaning some or all of the hull has been removed. I find it challenging to source whole farro at any of the local stores here in Indiana and Yupik brand fills that need for me. They deliver it quickly and in good condition and it has always cooked up perfectly. I recommend the seller and the product.

Good item for health

Perfect for salads or to use to stuff peppers. They are delicious

I buy a lot of farro because I love the nutty taste. I usually buy the „Anthony’s” brand which is super delicious! Yupik farro is disgusting 🤮. May contain treenuts what? Can’t be returned. Customer service treats you disrespectfully.DO NOT BUY IT! $7 per lbs. Seriously!!!

This farro took a really long time to even get al dente. I didn't enjoy it.
