What is "millet"?

Millet refers to a group of small-seeded grains that belong to the Poaceae family. Millets are cultivated in various parts of the world, including Africa, Asia, and parts of Europe and the Americas. They are valued for their resilience to harsh growing conditions, such as drought and poor soil fertility, making them an important food source in regions with challenging agricultural environments. Millets are highly nutritious, containing protein, fiber, vitamins, and minerals such as magnesium and phosphorus. They are gluten-free and have a mild, nutty flavor. Millets can be cooked whole, ground into flour, or used as an ingredient in a variety of dishes, including porridges, bread, pilafs, and salads.
