Instructions

For the Shallot Vinaigrette:

  • Add all of the ingredients into a bowl. Mix until combined and emulsified. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Set aside.

For the Salad:

  • Cook the farro according to the package directions. Once cooked, Spread it on to a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Place it in the fridge to chill.
  • Bring a small pot of water to a boil. Gently add in the eggs. Boil for 7 minutes. When the eggs finish cooking, submerge them in the bowl of ice water. Let them chill for 10 minutes before peeling the shell off. Set them aside.
  • When the farro has chilled, add it into a large bowl along with the snap peas, thawed peas, pickled red onion, arugula, and mint. Pour some of the shallot vinaigrette over top and toss the salad together until everything is evenly combined. Taste and add more dressing or salt and pepper if needed. Transfer the salad to your serving platter then crumble the goat cheese on top. Slice the eggs in half and nestle them into the salad. Season the eggs with salt and pepper. Enjoy!
