1
Bring 3 cups of water to a boil in a pot; add farro. Reduce heat, cover and simmer for 30 minutes or until tender and liquid is absorbed.
2
Meanwhile, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet over moderate heat, add diced carrots and celery, and sauté until tender.
3
Stir cooked farro and dried cranberries into the skillet with the veggies, mixing well to combine. Cook for another 5 minutes until heated through.
4
Transfer the farro mixture to a serving bowl, stirring in the toasted chopped pecans, red wine vinegar and fresh ground black pepper. Keep the salad mix warm by covering it.
5
Preheat your oven to 450 degrees Fahrenheit. Brush a baking sheet lightly with the remaining tablespoon of olive oil and place the salmon on it, skin-side down.
6
In a small bowl, whisk together the maple syrup and Dijon mustard. Spread this glaze generously over the top of the salmon.
7
Roast salmon in the middle of the oven for about 10 minutes. Switch your oven setting to broil, and broil the salmon for an additional 3–4 minutes or until golden and a bit crispy on top.
8
Transfer the salmon to a cutting board, and cut it into 4 equal pieces.
9
Gently fold the mâche lettuce into the warm farro salad. Serve each piece of maple-glazed salmon on a bed of this hearty salad.
