Popped sorghum is a popular snack in India, where it is called jowar dhani. It's similar to popcorn but is much smaller. This recipe can be found on our bags of Whole Grain Sorghum. Not recommended for use in an air popper.
Heat a pot with a tight fitting lid over medium heat. When hot, add sorghum grains and cover with lid. Cook, shaking pot often without removing the lid, until sorghum grains begin to pop. Once popping begins, shake pot continuously, leaving the lid in place.
When 2/3 of the grains have popped, remove from heat and pour out the popped grains; return unpopped grains to heat and continue as above until most grains have popped. Remove from heat when there is more than 10 seconds between pops. Season with toppings as desired.
Microwave Method
Place sorghum grains in a clean small brown paper bag. Fold top down to close and place folded side down in microwave. Heat on high for about 2 minutes (varies depending on microwave’s strength).
After 2 minutes, remove the bag from the microwave and pour off the popped grains. Return unpopped grains to the microwave and continue popping in 30 second intervals. Remove from microwave when there is more than 5 seconds between pops. Season with toppings as desired.
