Heat a large saucepan over medium-high heat.

Season the cream with 1/4 teaspoon of nutmeg, 1 tablespoon of coarse salt, and 1/2 tablespoon of black pepper.

Allow the cream mixture to simmer until it reduces and can coat the back of a spoon, about 15 to 20 minutes.

Soak 3 cups of whole grain farro in cold water for at least an hour before cooking to break down the outer bran.

Add the already cooked farro to the reduced cream sauce.

Stir in 1 cup of peas and mix well.

Cook for an additional 10 minutes, stirring occasionally.

Turn off the heat and stir in 1/4 cup of grated parmigiano-reggiano until melted and incorporated.

Plate the dish and top with fresh mint.
