Farro with Fennel and CarrotsJohn Kernick

This side dish plays the dual role of salad (with crunchy fennel and carrot and fresh parsley) and bed for the Cornish hens (recipe precedes) — the seasoning of these chewy grains echoes that of the olive butter tucked under the birds' skin.

Cooks' note:

Farro with fennel and carrots can be made 1 day ahead and cooled completely, uncovered, then chilled, covered.
