Whole farro: Add farro, water and salt, HIGH pressure for 10 minutes, set the valve to SEALING. Give 5 min to natural release before releasing pressure.
10 Minute Farro: Adjust water with or without the strainer and cook on LOW pressure for 1 minute, set the valve to SEAL. Let natural release for 5 min.
Drain: Once farro is done, lift the basket (or transfer the farro to a colander) and give it a good rinse under cool or warm running water.
