Heirloom Grain Porridge

📍 Los Angeles American/Wood-fire $$$

at Hatchet Hall

"Hatchet Hall's heirloom grain porridge is the comfort food dish that anchors their wood-fire tavern menu. The grain rotates — it is currently farro — and it is cooked in milk and stock until it has real body. The smoked butter and seasonal toppings make it feel substantial without being heavy. This is what a neighborhood tavern should cook."
