Description
Millet is a gluten free ancient grain with a pleasantly mild and slightly sweet flavor. Our Hulled Millet is one of our favorite Grains of Discovery and can be used as a tasty alternative to rice in pilafs or stir-fries. It was first farmed nearly 10,000 years ago and was considered to be a sacred crop in ancient China. Today it's enjoyed by many for its subtle flavor and high nutrition content.
Millet is a good source of fiber and contains iron.
Because of its mild flavor, millet can be both a sweet and savory food, which makes it a versatile option for breakfast, lunch and even dinner. Make a sweet breakfast porridge or add uncooked millet to bread for a bit of extra crunch. Serve it with a drizzle of olive oil and a sprinkle of sea salt and black pepper for a delicious side dish.
