Hulled Millet, Whole Grain Millet, Yellow Millet Seeds, Millet Seed
for Human Consumption Millet, the seed of an annual grass with an
appearance that resembles maize, is one of the oldest foods known
to humans. Native to Africa and Asia, Millet has been used as a
staple food source for thousands of years. Depending on the
variety, the plant can grow from one to fifteen feet tall. The
seeds are enclosed in colored hulls and held above the plant on a
spike-like panicle. Because the hull is hard and indigestible, this
grain must be hulled before it can be used for human consumption.
This process does not affect the nutrient value, as the germ stays
intact. Once the hull has been removed the Millet grains are small,
yellow, and sphere-like with a dot on one side where it was once
attached to the stem. Millet is tasty with a nutty, sweet corn-like
flavor, and contains numerous nutrients; it is nearly *5% protein,
contains high amounts of fiber and B vitamins including niacin,
thiamin, and riboflavin. This grain is highly nutritious,
non-glutinous, and is not an acid-forming food so it is easy to
digest. It is considered to be one of the least allergenic grains
available and is a tasty alternative to wheat products. Best if
toasted before adding cooking liquid. You can vary the amount of
water used for preparation depending on the texture you desire.
