  Amount  Measure       Ingredient -- Preparation Method
--------  ------------  --------------------------------
  4        Tablespoons  unsalted butter
     1/2           cup  finely chopped shallot
  2               cups  farro, raw -- rinsed with cold water
     1/2           cup  dry white wine -- such as Pinot Grigio, or Sauvignon Blanc, or dry vermouth
  4               cups  broth -- chik'n or veg
     1/4           cup  freshly grated Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese
 
 
In a small saucepan, melt 2 Tablespoons of the butter over medium-high
heat and saute the shallots for 3 minutes, or until the shallots begin to
soften. Add the farro, and stir to coat with the butter. Add the wine,
raise the heat to high, and cook, stirring, for 3 minutes to evaporate
some of the wine. Transfer the mixture to the insert of a 4 to 6-quart
slow cooker and stir in the broth. Cover the slow cooker, and cook on High
for 1 1/2 hours.
Add the remaining butter and the cheese to the farro, stirring to blend.
Cover the cooker, and turn the heat to low or warm. Cook for another 30
minutes, and serve the risotto immediately.
 
Serves 6 to 8
 
AuthorNote: Farro makes a lovely risotto with a creamy quality. Similar in
preparation to traditional risotto, this dish will soon become a favorite
in your house.
