luv2cook - just a friendly correction, farro is not Israeli couscous. Farro is a grain, Israeli couscous is more like a pasta which looks grain-like. Israeli couscous is a bit like pearl barley, which also makes a great risotto with greater health benefits.
thanks for the correction. I will look for both and see which I like best!
Had a great salad with farro and broiled grapefruit and fennel which I would like to try at home. I will visit Nicastros.
Loverofallgoodfood I have purchased farro at the Whole Foods Market in Toronto - maybe they can do mail order? If not you could try Market Organics or Rainbow Foods but best to call first to confirm that they have it.
Just thought I'd let you all know that I finally found farro at the Farmer's Pick market. It's in a little strip mall at Prince of Wales near Meadowloands. They have a couple of different varieties. I was very happy to find it :)
