Savory Farro Tart

This savoury farro tart is a wonderful vegetarian dish that celebrates the nutty texture of ancient grains combined with the creamy richness of whole-milk ricotta. Earthy and satisfying, the tart is lightly seasoned with freshly grated nutmeg and Parmigiano-Reggiano, creating a sophisticated flavour profile that feels both rustic and refined. It is an excellent alternative to a traditional quiche, offering a more substantial bite thanks to the tender farro grains.

Perfect as a light lunch served alongside a crisp green salad or as a unique side dish for a Sunday roast, this homemade tart is incredibly versatile. Because it is packed with protein and slow-release carbohydrates, it serves as a nutritious and comforting meal for the whole family. Simply bake until golden and enjoy it warm from the oven for the best texture.
