Instructions
- 1
Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C). Combine the rinsed farro, 2 1/2 cups water, and 1/2 tsp salt in a medium saucepan and bring to a boil over high heat. Reduce the heat to low, cover, and simmer until the farro is tender and chewy with no hard center, 25–30 minutes. Drain any excess water, spread the farro on a rimmed baking sheet, and let it cool for 10 minutes.

While the farro cooks, toss the halved cherry tomatoes with 1 tbsp olive oil and 1/4 tsp salt on the rimmed baking sheet (or a second sheet if using simultaneously). Spread in a single layer and roast at 425°F (220°C) until the skins are blistered and the tomatoes are beginning to collapse, 15–18 minutes. Set aside to cool slightly.
