| How it's made | The farro is sowed in autumn on a ploughed land and it is then picked in the summer. The farro is called perlato because its bran and seed are removed with specific machines and it then becomes lighter. Before being brought to the cooperative the farro is let to dry out. Lu Stazzu grows the farro on the Sibillini mountains at more than 1000 slm, a climate that makes this cereal full of flavour and rich in proteins and mineral salt. |
| Storage | Keep the product in a cool and dry place. Once cooked, consume within few days. |
