I followed the recipe exactly, but my salad didn't turn out as good as the one in the picture. I think I might have overcooked the farro.

This salad was a bit too acidic for my taste. I think it would have been better with a less tangy dressing.

This salad was a disappointment. The farro was undercooked, and the vegetables were bland. The dressing was also too oily.
