๐Ÿ”ช Starting from raw? The basics (2)

Cooking farro

Boil it like pasta: plenty of salted water, 25โ€“30 minutes until chewy-tender, then drain. 1 cup dry makes about 2ยฝ cups.

Soaking cashews

Cover with boiling water for 15 minutes (or cold water for 2+ hours) and drain โ€” that's all 'soaked' means. It's what makes them blend into silky cream.
