It's good eating if you simmer it long enough. Had a bowl for breakfast.

Printer friendly version Millet Millet
Although millet is most often associated as the main ingredient in bird seed, it is not just "for the birds." Creamy like mashed potatoes or fluffy like rice, millet is a delicious grain that can accompany many types of food. As with most grains, millet is available in markets throughout the year.
Millet is tiny in size and round in shape and can be white, gray, yellow or red. The most widely available form of millet found in stores is the pearled, hulled variety, although traditional couscous made from cracked millet can also be found. The term millet refers to a variety of grains, some of which do not belong to the same genus.
Food Chart This chart graphically details the %DV that a serving of Millet provides for each of the nutrients of which it is a good, very good, or excellent source according to our Food Rating System. Additional information about the amount of these nutrients provided by Millet can be found in the Food Rating System Chart. A link that takes you to the In-Depth Nutritional Profile for Millet, featuring information over 80 nutrients, can be found under the Food Rating System Chart.

History 1. The origin and history of millet is linked to Ethiopia where it is used to make a flatbread called "injera" and India where it is used in the flatbread "roti." At one time is also served as a staple grain in parts of Europe. Throughout the U.S. it is most commonly found as a component of birdseed, but is beginning to show up on store shelves for human consumption due to its many health benefits. Benefits 2. Millet is gluten-free and safe to eat for those who suffer from Celiac disease or for those who experience gluten sensitivity. It is a healthy alternative to gluten containing grains such as wheat. Millet is most recognized nutritionally for being a good source of the minerals magnesium, manganese and phosphorus. Research has linked magnesium to a reduced risk for heart attack and phosphorus is important for the development of body tissue and energy metabolism. Features 3. If you have ever seen common birdseed it is likely that you have seen millet; a small, round grain-like seed. Millet is, in fact, a seed, but because of its nutritional components and the way it is used in cooking, it is classified as a grain. Millet comes in a variety of colors often including white, gray, red and yellow. When shopping for millet you will most likely find the pearled, hulled variety. Function 4. Millet can be used in a variety of ways and is a great substitute for other grains such as couscous or rice. Cooking millet with less water will result in a rice-like grain. Millet can be made creamier and almost like mashed potatoes when more water is added during the cooking process. Cooked millet can replace hot cereals such as oatmeal for a different breakfast option. To add a nutritional boost to your baked goods, millet can be ground into a very fine texture and added during the preparation of the batter. Considerations 5. Millet is still catching on as a food for humans throughout the U.S. It may not be readily available at all supermarkets. Many smaller health food stores do carry millet. If you are struggling to find it, talk with your local grocer about special ordering it or order it online. Substitute millet for some of your regular grains each week to benefit from its nutrients and to add variety to your healthy diet.
