Tropical Traditions

Millet isn’t just for the birds! This versatile whole grain can be cooked up for use in everything from your morning breakfast to cooking into savory dishes as a filling or side. Want to try it out for yourself? One lucky Contest Corner reader will win a 5-lb bag of Whole Grain Hulled Millet, so read on!

When our friends at Tropical Traditions invited me to pick out another product to review, I automatically gravitated to their whole grains selection. When I saw that they had millet available, I was intrigued. I remembered my mom making this when I was a kid and that it had a nice flavor. A lot of people haven’t heard of millet as anything other than birdfood – Jai, for example, was surprised when I mentioned I’d be making millet for dinner. But you can prepare millet in several different ways in savory entrees or even desserts. It’s been years since I’ve eaten millet and I’ve never prepared it myself, so I turned to the Internet for advice. I found this great video on how to prepare it and decided that it looked like a nice, simple way to do it. You basically toast the millet in olive oil in a frying pan, then add water and allow to simmer until it puffs up, a little like rice.

Cooked millet

As soon as the millet started to toast in the frying pan, the scent took me right back to my childhood. It fluffed up nicely, and was not bad garnished with margarine/butter and a dash of garlic salt and black pepper. You can eat it by itself, as we did, or cook it into numerous recipes. Eating this again was a blast from the past that I enjoyed!
