Millets are a group of small-seeded grains that have been cultivated for thousands of years, primarily in Asia and Africa. They are known for their high nutritional value, being rich in fiber, protein, vitamins, and minerals such as iron and magnesium. Millets are gluten-free, making them an excellent choice for those with gluten sensitivities. These hardy grains are drought-resistant and can thrive in poor soil conditions, contributing to food security in challenging climates. Common varieties include pearl millet, finger millet, and foxtail millet, which can be used in a variety of dishes, from porridge and bread to salads and snacks. With a growing recognition of their health benefits and environmental sustainability, millets are gaining popularity as a nutritious alternative to more commonly consumed grains like rice and wheat.
