Healthy Ancient Millet Grains You Need To Include In Your Menu

Millet – the very healthy ancient grains

The healthy ancient millet grains have been the staple food of the earth’s population since time immemorial. Above all, the brown millet, which is considered the oldest bread grain in the world. Today we know that people made millet flatbread from the sweetgrass fruit 8,000 years ago.

Over the centuries, people forgot about millet. Maybe because of other crops such as potatoes, maize, wheat, barley, and rye, the small fruit spelled grain yield was relatively low and therefore not lucrative. Millet – including brown millet – is much less demanding to cultivate than “modern” cereals. It grows in dry, mountainous regions and has a relatively short growth phase, called the growing season.

The brown millet can also be grown entirely independently of the previous crop. It is hardly surprising that panicle grass is one of the most important staple foods in many African and Asian regions.

At the moment, you can find the millet on shopping lists more often. Healthy millet for risotto, millet porridge instead of rice porridge, or millet patties with various vegetables. A lot is possible here. People used brown millet in earlier times, while most consumers rely on gold millet today, And this is currently experiencing a real renaissance.

On the one hand, some (mostly organic) farmers have discovered the value of the frugal plant for themselves, and on the other hand, increasingly, the health benefits of the millet are becoming known. Because this original grain is the best and is the most mineral-rich grain globally, it contains many trace elements and other nutrients. And in the right combination and form so that they can be metabolized very well by our organism.

You can find different kinds of millet in Indian grocery stores and also in other online stores. The best is to shop in local stores if available. See a list with the names in different languages.
