ABOUT

Proso millet is a 7000-year-old, draught-tolerant crop that was once a widely used grain but later became a forgotten grain. But now that this protein-rich grain has made a comeback and as awareness about the nutritional value and benefits of proso millet continues to grow, it is likely to become an important part of households’ diets. Also known as white millet or hog millet, proso is a gluten-free grain, which makes it an ideal choice for people who have a gluten allergy or celiac disease. The carbohydrate-rich proso millet is cool in nature and can be consumed during the summer. Proso has a mild, nutty flavour that can be used to prepare sweet and savoury dishes. As a superfood, proso millet is worth making a part of the diet plan.
