Cook and stir over medium heat for 5 minutes. Add 4 cups farro, cooked and stirred 2 minutes more. Add 6 cups water and 1 bay leaf. Bring to boil and reduce heat.Cover: simmer 25 minutes or until all liquid is absorbed and farro is just slightly chewy. Remove from heat. Remove celery, carrot, onion and bay leaf, discard.
