I bought some organic hulled millet and made some tonight and I absolutely loved it !!! I ate it tossed with olive oil and red onions, eggs and green peas ... sooo delicious !!! It kind of reminds me of cornmeal which I used to eat often before 'cause it's one of my favorite dishes but it's an AVOID for me unfortunately ...  however; millet is really yummiiiii, hence I'll be eating it more often and cornmeal will be a once in a while treat 'cause I can't give it up totally  Has anybody else eaten millet in the place of cornmeal ?? Any other cornmeal lovers out there that r B'S ?? Thanks  |

I used to make a millet pudding that was really good, but I no longer have the book that the recipe was in. It was a combination of cooked millet, peanut butter, carob powder, and I think honey also. |

Lisa,
At first, I replaced corn products (and wheat products) with other grains, such as millet, and rice; but when I had my secretor status tested and found that I am a non-secretor, I realized that we are closer to a type O in our grain needs.
The less grains I eat, the better. So, I don't eat millet or and other grains, except for my nightly treat of a rice cake/nut butter. |

French Meadow Bakery used to make a millet bread which I had purchased once or twice that was a nice substitute for a cornmeal type of bread.
Millet adds an interesting texture and 'graininess' akin to cornmeal.
Others on this forum have mentioned that millet works well as a substitute grain in recipes for making pilaf or tabouli.

Hi there!!
I've tried lately millet too,(it must be the season's demand).
It leaves me a bitter-ish- after taste. Do others have similar experience?
I am off cereals too and don't eat much rice lately either, so I thought to try millet but...
not really bitter, - bitterish after taste. Any ideas to impove that? |
| PEACE |

There's a company named Sami's Bakery that makes a millet & flax chips. I keep these around for snacking and dipping. Great tasting. They have other products w/millet as well such as tortillas, pizza crust, cookies, and breads. They have a web site http://www.samisbakery.com or most HFS sell them too. I order mine thru the food coop. |

People r so kind and generous here and ALWAYS full of ideas What a great forum this is !!! |

use anything compliant to sprinkle on top, instead of the coconut.
a shredded and dehydrated fruit.....apple, or pear or anything compliant. |

It has been a while since I've had millet. Still love corn bread. Fortunately for my body, difficult to get corn bread and I do not have an oven.
If you do not like plain white/brown rice, add millet. Also good as rice pudding.

Thank you for the recipe, md.
Amaranth could be substituted for the millet for blood type A's to make it more beneficial.
