Descripción de la Receta:
Escarole, a member of the chicory family is a leafy green rich in Vitamins A & C and fiber. Escarole has a slightly bitter flavor, that gets sweeter when cooked. Farro is an ancient grain, once a mainstay of ancient Rome. It has a slightly nutty flavor and chewy texture and cooks in only 30 minutes. Soak Farro overnight in water to reduce cooking time and help to make it more easily digested.
