SiriMart Unpolished Organic Foxtail Millet 2Kg

1. Soak before using-Soak the millet in 3-4 timesthe amount of water or at least 6 hours,

Soaking the millet overnight ensures that you break down the phytic acid which is responsible for impairing nutrient absorption.

2. If not soaking, toast– While some cooks prefer to wash their millet, some don’t – and in that case, you can toast the millet in a sauté’ pan before you start cooking to bring out a subtle level of nuttiness to their flavour profile.

3. Add more liquid to change the texture- You can also prepare foxtail millet with a lighter, looser texture similar to couscous or make it into a porridge. Use 2:1 ratio of water to millet.

4. Pressure Cook– Soak Foxtail millet in water and thenpressure cook for couple of whistles. Once cooked, the millets should be grainy. Use 2:1 ratio of water to millet for fluffy texture and 3:1 ratio for a softer consistency.

5. The boiled millet can be served with Dal, curry or chutney/pickle.

6. U can add boiled millet with vegetable stir-fry
