I Don't Trust These Short Cooking Times for Farro with Lentils
Lentil, Avocado, and Farro Salad is a CP and it drew my attention. I like all the components but i don't feel confident in the prescribed cooking time of "lentils and pre-soaked farro, cooked together 10-12 minutes til tender. As someone who prefers to play it safe when i am hesitant, my plan is to pre-soak the farro overnight and then cook it separately from the lentils til each is tender, then follow the rest of the recipe. What's your experience w/ cooking times for farro and lentils? Don't the cooking times vary alot depending upon age of the grains and legumes, etc? thx much.
