Nutritional values

What is millet?

Round in appearance and bright yellow in colour, millet is a cereal similar to quinoa, considered a 'superfood' due to its nutritional richness. It is a source of energy and protein, while being gluten-free, so it can be consumed by coeliacs.

Like other cereals, such as rice and quinoa, millet should be boiled before eating. However, the cooking time is longer than for rice and quinoa, reaching almost an hour. This makes it ideal for salads and vegetable stir-fries, but also for creams and other stews.
