I’m back again with the farro, which is my go-to comfort food, this time in the form of a farro bowl with brie and shallots. Warm, chewy farro, creamy brie, sweet shallots – I mean, who would not feel totally comforted with a bowlful of this deliciousness? It’s also the perfect was to use up that last slice or two of cheese, that one lone shallot…whatever excuse you need to whip up a bowl of this, DO IT. Because I’m telling you, once you go farro, you won’t go back…let’s make it!

And while I am totally okay with the classic American cheese version, sometimes you want to take an old favorite up a few levels. As in brie cheese instead of American. As in country bread spread with grainy mustard and sprinkled with chives. As in a grilled cheese sandwich gone totally fancy and decadent.
