Instructions

Start Prep & Cook Farro
1

• Wash and dry all produce. • Peel and mince garlic. • Heat a drizzle of oil in a medium pot over medium-high heat. Add garlic and half the Italian Seasoning (you’ll use the rest later). Cook, stirring, until garlic is fragrant, 30 seconds. • Add ½ cup farro (1 cup for 4 servings). (Be sure to measure—we sent more.) Cook, stirring, until toasted, 1-2 minutes. • Add 3 cups water (5 cups for 4), half the stock concentrates (you’ll use the rest later), and a big pinch of salt. Bring to a boil and cook until farro is tender, 25-30 minutes. TIP: If you end up with any excess stock, simply pour it out. Alternatively, if stock evaporates before farro is done, add a splash of water.

Finish Prep
2

• While farro cooks, halve, core, and dice apple into ¼-inch pieces. Remove and discard any large stems from kale.

Cook Pork
3

• Pat pork* dry with paper towels and season all over with remaining Italian Seasoning, salt, and pepper. • Heat a drizzle of oil in a large pan over medium-high heat. Cook until browned and cooked through, 4-6 minutes per side. TIP: Reduce heat if pork begins to brown too quickly. • Transfer to a cutting board; tent with foil to keep warm.

Make Sauce
4

• To same pan over medium-high heat, add apple; season with salt and pepper. Cook, stirring and scraping up any browned bits from bottom of pan, until apple is slightly softened, 4-6 minutes. • Add mustard, remaining stock concentrates, ½ cup water (¾ cup for 4 servings), and 1 tsp sugar (2 tsp for 4). Cook, stirring, until sauce is thickened and apple is very tender, 5-7 minutes. Season with salt and pepper. TIP: Add a splash more water if sauce is too thick. • Remove pan from heat; stir in 1 TBSP butter (2 TBSP for 4).

Finish Farro
5

• Once farro is done, reduce heat under pan to medium and stir in kale. Cook, stirring, until kale is slightly wilted, 3-4 minutes. Season with salt and pepper. TIP: For richer farro, stir in 1 TBSP butter (2 TBSP for 4 servings).

Finish & Serve
6

• Slice pork crosswise. • Divide farro between plates; top with sliced pork. Drizzle pan sauce over pork and serve.
