A unique aspect of the salad is that the farro is cooked in apple cider and bay leaves, infusing flavor into the farro right from the beginning and imparting a lightly sweet note to the wheat grain. Also unique is that most of the ingredients are purposefully kept large, rather than chopped small, so that each individual ingredient can shine and contribute to the overall taste and texture of the dish.

Pistachios are having quite the moment. As the star of the now-famous "Dubai chocolate bar," these shelled glories have really gone viral, so much so that there was even a shortage at one point. If you're someone who hoarded up during the frenzy, you might want to keep an eye on your stash. Contrary to what you might think, pistachios do go bad - and it doesn't take that long for them to deteriorate.

The viral sensation of Dubai chocolate has resulted in a significant increase in global demand for pistachios, causing a notable ingredient shortage amid soaring prices.
