Roast chicken tonight, done with my usual spatchcockery, alongside this farro with roasted cauliflower. Except I couldn’t find farro for less than $8.95, nor the similar (but cheaper) spelt berries, so I used wheat berries. Two things to remember for next time:
1) Probably cook the wheat berries (or whatever) in a bigger pot. I used our smallest, and even after an hour and a half, I don’t think they were as cooked as they should have been.
2) Skip the dressing in the linked recipe and just use your standard vinaigrette. I found the sesame oil and mustard off-putting together.
Otherwise, not a bad combination. I have, somewhat overnight, become a cauliflower eater.
The chicken went into the oven with nothing more than salt and pepper. No oil, no garlic, no herbs. It was delicious.
