Mustard-Crusted Pork with Farro and Carrot Salad

yield: Makes 6 to 8 servings

Using a mandoline to slice the carrots turns them into ribbons, and cooking them briefly keeps them from being too crunchy. If you don't have a mandoline, use a vegetable peeler. if (Epi.text.truncatedVersion) { Epi.text.truncatedVersion("recipeIntroText", "Using a mandoline to slice the carrots turns them into ribbons, and cooking them briefly keeps them from being too crunchy. If you don't have a..."); } else { jQuery(function() { Epi.text.truncatedVersion("recipeIntroText", "Using a mandoline to slice the carrots turns them into ribbons, and cooking them briefly keeps them from being too crunchy. If you don't have a..."); }); } Place pork on a wire rack set inside a large rimmed baking sheet; season all over with salt and pepper. Whisk mustard, mustard powder, and 1/4 cup oil in a small bowl to blend. Rub over pork and let sit at room temperature 1 hour.

Preheat oven to 425°F. Roast pork until beginning to brown, 25-30 minutes. Reduce heat to 350°F and roast until a thermometer inserted in the thickest part registers 145°F, 25-35 minutes longer, depending on thickness of roast.

Meanwhile, cook farro in a large pot of boiling salted water until tender, 30-35 minutes; drain.

Whisk vinegar, caraway seeds, honey, and remaining 1/4 cup oil in a medium bowl; set vinaigrette aside.

Heat 2 tablespoons vinaigrette in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add farro and carrots and cook, tossing often, until carrots soften and farro is warmed through, about 3 minutes. Remove from heat and transfer to a large bowl. Add onion, parsley, and half of remaining vinaigrette; season with salt and pepper and toss to combine.

Slice pork. Serve with farro salad. Pass remaining vinaigrette alongside.

DO AHEAD: Farro can be cooked 2 days ahead. Let cool, cover, and chill. Reheat before using.
