What Is Organic Millet?
Organic millet grain is a seed from an exceptionally resilient type of grass. There are several species of millets, but all of them are highly resistant to heat and drought. This is why this crop is a staple in many African and Asian countries, where agricultural conditions are less than ideal.
Millets are used as food for people across the world, animal feed, and even grazing crops in some areas. This simple grain plays an extremely important part in the fight against world hunger. It’s also a basis of numerous traditional alcoholic drinks in both Asia and Africa.
Millet is one of the essential crops on the planet. As it’s delicious and nutritious, the grain’s popularity grows.

Organic Millet Benefits for Diet
Organic millet grain is very good for you because it’s rich in nutrients and doesn’t contain bad fats. This food contains fiber, a variety of minerals, and quite a bit of protein (over 6 grams in a cup of cooked millet). Therefore it’s good for athletes, bodybuilders, and vegans.
Cooked organic millet grain has only 1.7 grams of total fat. 48.7 mg of that is omega 3 essential fatty acids. Eating foods rich in dietary fiber is associated with numerous health benefits. Organic millet seed definitely falls into that category as it contains 2.3 grams in a cup. It also has only 0.2 gram of sugar in a serving and no starch.
Unlike many whole grains, millet seed contains only trace amounts of chemicals that make grains hard to digest. Therefore, it’s easier on your stomach by default.
Surprisingly, organic millet seed contains quite a few antioxidants. Therefore, you can enjoy this grain while on a detox program. It will help make sure your detox diet remains well-balanced. The infusion of fiber and protein from a serving of millet will give you the energy you need to detox.

Many Ways to Enjoy Organic Millet Daily
Organic millet grain is extremely versatile, which is one of its main benefits. Use it to make:
•
Morning porridge.
Flavor it with cinnamon and honey and add some nuts and dried fruits for taste and nutrition. This morning cereal is so good, you won’t be getting back to rolled oats for a long time.
•
Baked millet with spinach, eggs, and cheese.
If you aren’t a vegan, cook ½ cup millet, then toss it with a cup chopped spinach. Put into an oiled ramekin and pour 4 eggs whisked with spices over millet-spinach mixture. Cover with cheese and bake for 20 minutes.
•
Pilaf-style organic millet to go with everything.
Use organic millet as a substitute for any whole grain in a recipe. It cooks much faster and will allow you to enjoy pilaf-style dishes as often as you want.

Baked goods with dry millet.
Simply add some dry organic millet seed to cookies, granolas, and bread for a tasty crunch.
•
Grain salads.
Add cooked millet to any salad and make a nutritious and tasty lunch.
•
Polenta-like creamy porridge.
Cook your millet with more water and let it cool in a pan. This way you’ll get millet ‘polenta’ that you can cut and fry to make croquettes. Serve them with sweet or savory sauces depending on your mood.
•
Vegan millet burgers.
Mix cooked millet with some cooked chickpeas and spices. Mash everything in a blender. Shape burgers with your hands, toss them in flour, and toast on either side until golden. Enjoy fresh or freeze to use later.

How to Cook Organic Millet Grain?
A cup of raw dry organic millet seed will yield about 3 ½ cups of cooked grain. Depending on the result you seek, you can use 2 or 3 cups of water. The latter will allow you to make a creamy organic millet cereal that will be perfect for breakfast. Note that you’ll need to stir it more frequently when cooking and fluff it up nicely in the end.
If you want to enjoy organic millet grain as a side dish, salad ingredient, etc., use this recipe:
Ingredients
:
•
1 cup organic millet seed
•
2 cups water or broth
•
¼ teaspoon salt (or more to your taste)
•
1 tablespoon butter (or a vegan alternative)
Instructions:
1.
Toast dry millet in a large saucepan for about 5 minutes. This will enhance the aroma and flavor of the grain. Stir frequently so that it doesn’t burn.
2.
Pour water into the saucepan, add salt, and stir thoroughly.
3.
Bring to a boil and reduce heat to the lowest setting. Add butter and stir gently. Cover the pot and let simmer for 15 minutes.
NOTE: peek into the saucepan rarely and only stir your millet the tiniest bit. Uncovering the pot and stirring too vigorously will damage the tiny seeds and ruin the texture of your dish.
4.
Remove the pan from heat (still covered) and let it stand undisturbed for 10 more minutes.
5.
Fluff up cooked millet with a fork and serve warm.
Organic millet is an excellent substitute for other grains in many recipes. However, it gets dry rather fast, so it’s best to cook it in small batches and enjoy right away. Organic millet seed doesn’t need presoaking and takes only about 30 minutes to cook, unlike other whole grains. Therefore, it shouldn’t be too difficult to make some fresh millet for the day.
