Frequently Asked Questions
Should hulled millet be rinsed before cooking?
Yes. Rinse it under cold water in a fine-mesh sieve and drain well before cooking. This helps remove loose surface starch and any fine grain dust.
Is this millet gluten-free?
Millet is naturally gluten-free, but this product is packed in a room that also handles gluten. It is therefore not represented as gluten-free and is not suitable for coeliac disease or severe gluten allergies.
What does “hulled millet” mean?
It means the tough, inedible outer husk has been removed, leaving the edible inner grain ready for rinsing and cooking.
How much water should I use for millet?
For fluffy millet, use approximately 2 cups of water or stock for each 1 cup of dry millet. For softer porridge, increase the liquid and simmer until the texture suits your preference.
Can millet be used for breakfast porridge?
Yes. Simmer it with additional water or milk until soft and creamy, then serve it with fruit, cinnamon, coconut, seeds or your preferred toppings.
Why toast millet before cooking?
Toasting the rinsed and well-drained grain briefly in a dry saucepan can deepen its nutty flavour. It is optional and should be done carefully to avoid burning.
