The Backstory
"East meets Caribbean vibes, inspired by where I've been and where I'm from. Working with dashi broth brings a depth of umami flavor to the grains, farro in this case, that you wouldn't get otherwise. The bright pop from scotch bonnet pepper in the dressing brings balances out the earthiness of the grains and veggies." -Chef Pierre Serrao
