Also, and possibly more commonly, called beluga lentils. I’ve had them mixed in with other grains and pulses. IIRC, they hold their shape better than other lentil types.
Have you made this yet? I am hoping to make it later this week!

I haven’t made it yet! Soon! Good luck!
While I caramelized onions, i added thyme, pepper and sherry to some white kidney beans from a can, and simmered them , then combining the 2 , placing them in an ovenproof dish, topping with gruyere and broiling.
I liked them but 1 of my DCs found them too bland, so I probably won’t make the lentil and farro version.
I thought the flavours were a nice change with the beans.
One of my other DCs doesn’t like lentils, but wants beans daily (and beans not mixed with farro or grains) , hence the substitution.
I thought it worked quite well.
