Let me start by saying that millet is one of my favorite grains. In fact, it's one of my favorite Bob's Red Mill products. We see it most often in birdseed blends, but it's been popular across Asia for thousands of years. Millet was revered as
one of five sacred crops in ancient China and was first farmed 10,000 years ago. Millet is mentioned in the Old Testament, the writings of Herodotus, and the journals of Marco Polo. Clearly, I'm not alone in my love of millet.
Millet has a mild, sweet flavor and quick cooking time, making it a tasty, convenient, whole grain addition to any meal of the day. Unlike most other grains, this versatile, gluten free grain is alkaline, which makes it easy to digest and helps balance the body’s natural tendency towards acidity. 
Enjoy whole grain millet as a unique alternative to rice in salads and stir fries. Cook millet for a sweet breakfast porridge or add uncooked millet to breads for a crunchy texture. Serve millet with a drizzle of olive oil, and a dash of salt, and pepper in place of mashed potatoes for a delightful side that will enhance any meal. It's also a good source of iron!
The light flavor of millet allows it to be sweet or savory, which means the possibilities are endless. Luckily, we have developed some delicious recipes for millet to help get you started.
