Millet is a small, round, ancient grain grown mainly in Africa and Asia. It is highly nutritious, rich in fiber, protein, vitamins, and minerals like magnesium and iron. Millet grains are typically pale yellow or white, but can also be found in red, gray, or brown varieties depending on the type. Naturally gluten-free, millet is valued for its ability to grow in harsh, dry conditions. It has a mild, slightly nutty flavor and can be cooked into porridge, ground into flour, or used as a substitute for rice or couscous. Millet is a staple food in many cultures and is increasingly popular worldwide for its health benefits.
