    Note: Make sure to cook the farro ahead of time (or use quick-cooking farro), so that this dish will come together quickly. Use 3 cups water to 1 cup farro; bring to a slow boil in a medium saucepan. Lower the heat, leave the cover ajar, and simmer until the water is absorbed, 30 to 35 minutes. For quick-cooking farro, follow package directions.

      Thanks for this! I kinda screwed mine up by adding too much tomato paste and some artichoke juice, which gave it an unusual flavor, pungent flavor. But, I will likely try this again, doing the recipe just as written. Love cooking with farro and artichokes! Thanks again!
