## Fergese Verore: A Delightful Mediterranean Dish

Fergese verore, also known as farro e verdure, is a traditional Italian dish from the region of Ferrara. It’s a hearty and flavorful meal that celebrates the freshness of seasonal vegetables combined with farro, an ancient whole grain. This dish is not only delicious but also packed with nutrients, making it a perfect choice for health-conscious eaters.

Ingredients:

  • 1 cup farro (or farro perlato)
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 medium onion, finely chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 2 carrots, peeled and diced
  • 2 celery stalks, diced
  • 1 zucchini, diced
  • 1 bell pepper, seeded and diced (any color)
  • 4 cups vegetable broth or water
  • Salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
  • 1/2 cup fresh parsley, chopped
  • Grated Parmesan cheese, for serving (optional)

Recipe:

  1. Rinse farro: Rinse the farro thoroughly under cold water until the water runs clear. This helps remove any bitterness.

  2. Sauté vegetables: In a large saucepan or Dutch oven, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add onion, garlic, carrots, celery, zucchini, and bell pepper. Sauté for about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until vegetables soften slightly.

  3. Add farro and broth: Add the rinsed farro to the pan with the vegetables. Pour in the vegetable broth or water, ensuring it covers the grain by about an inch. Bring to a boil.

  4. Simmer: Once boiling, reduce heat to low, cover the pan, and let it simmer for about 45-50 minutes, or until the farro is tender and has absorbed most of the liquid.

  5. Season: Taste and adjust seasoning with salt and pepper as needed.

  6. Finish and serve: Stir in chopped parsley just before serving. You can top with grated Parmesan cheese, if desired. Serve warm, enjoying the harmonious blend of grains and vegetables.

Serving Suggestions:

  • Garnish with fresh herbs and a drizzle of olive oil.
  • Serve alongside grilled fish or chicken for a complete meal.
  • Top with crumbled feta or goat cheese for extra creaminess.
