    Thus was a really tasty introduction to farro however, even with the greens, this salad was too salty for my palate. Consider reducing salt by half (especially if you choose to include a salty cheese like Parmesan. I'll make this again.

    This salad was great. I made it for my students at school, it was light, refreshing and healthy. They loved it! Good job Guy! Thanks.

    Excellent side dish (made it tonight with grilled fish and grilled veggies, or even as a light summer main course. I used both orange and lemon zest & juice (1/2 & 1/2 as I also like a little more tang versus sweetness, and substituted a combo of Jerusalem couscous (toasted first & pearl barley as I couldn't find faro. Otherwise followed the recipe pretty closely (dijon, not parmesan, although didn't measure anything (as usual and it still came out great. Will definitely make it again.

    This salad is addictive! Just love it. I changed it up quite a bit because I didn't want to run out to the store. My version still captured the sweet/sour/salty/crunchy combo that I cannot resist. Here are my suggestions: I used lemons instead of oranges (no oranges in frig...also I prefer the tang of lemons, no garlic (hate garlic breath, white wine vinegar (I prefer this to balsemic, added red pepper (for some extra vitamin C and crunch, and I used toasted slivered almonds instead of Marcona (a little healthier and available in my frig. Next time I am going to try it with a different grain, blueberries, and a few more vegies. Thanks for the recipe!!

    Made this this weekend for two sets of company, everyone loved it and I am eating the leftovers! I didn't use the prunes, doubled up on the cherries and used regular balsamic instead of white, cause that is what I had. So good! And healthy!

    Great recipe! I added a little parm just for fun, I do think it was a typo in the directions, but what isn't good with parm?! Definitely use the marcona almonds they are AMAZING!! I only cooked my farro for about 25 minutes, very much kept an eye on it, also used veggie broth to cook it in, I would omit the salt next time, as together they got too salty.

    Are you serious!!! Do you watch the same show that he is the star of? His hands are well manicured. Oh and by the way most cooks that cook for themselves do not use gloves! That's right you do! THIS WAS THE BEST SHOW HE HAS EVER HAD. I am making everthing from this episode for NEW YEAR'S

    Lighten up UT. Did you eat the food he cooked?
    You cook your own food like I do, and I am VERY careful.
    But this is a show.... not making your meal......

    I agree with Chels0522...I found this farro salad to be luscious and delightful. Yes, Gbear0306, there is no Parm in it...dijon mustard! The cool and refreshing citrus vinaigrette was the perfect compliment to this farro salad as were the micro greens, Thanks Guy AND Matthew!! Awesome episode!!

    To Gbear: Even though the recipe directions call for Parm, there is no Parm in it. Watching this episode, when Guy made the dressing, it was Dijon mustard he put in.

    I found the recipe to be delicious! I'd like to try this same style of salad with other grains, like quinoa.
