If you're hankering for a spectacular centerpiece for a vegetarian meal, look no further than this hearty pie. Flaky pastry gives way to cremini mushrooms and chewy farro (an ancient Italian grain) bound together by ricotta.

Cooks’ notes:

•If using barley, simmer unsoaked barley in 6 cups water with 1/4 teaspoon salt for 45 minutes.
•Filling can be made and pastry rolled out 1 day ahead and chilled.
•Pie can be assembled 3 hours ahead and chilled, uncovered.
