"Millet is an ancient gluten-free grain with a slightly nutty flavor. It does well as a pilaf, but I also occasionally make it into a creamy porridge. It’s delicious no matter how you prepare it, and its health benefits alone make it worth trying, even if you’re a bit skeptical."
Well, sounds exciting, definitively will give it a shot soon!!
