Millet Myth vs Fact

Myth: Millets take too long to cook.

Fact: Most millets cook in 12-15 minutes if soaked beforehand (Kodo, Foxtail, Barnyard, Little, Browntop). Whole millets like Pearl and Sorghum take 25-30 minutes, but soaking helps reduce cooking time—and they’re worth it for their nutrition!

What’s a millet myth you’ve heard? Drop it below & let’s bust it!

Struggling to cook millets right? Here’s how to do it the right way!

Soaking millets before cooking helps hydrate the fiber and improve digestion. Soak:
✔ Whole millets – 7-8 hours
✔ Broken millets – 4-5 hours
✔ Millet flour – 2-3 hours

Cooking Method:
1️⃣ Add millet and water or vegetable broth to a saucepan (2:1 ratio)
2️⃣ Bring to a boil, then reduce to a simmer
3️⃣ Cover and cook until the liquid is absorbed, usually 10-12 minutes
4️⃣ Fluff with a fork & let rest for 10 minutes before serving

Cook your millets the right way for better texture, flavor, and nutrition! 🌾✨ #MilletCookingTips #MilletLiving
