🍲 How to Cook Buddha Ratana Foxtail Millet

Ingredients:

• 1 cup Buddha Ratana Foxtail Millet

• 2–2½ cups water

• Salt, to taste

• 1 tsp ghee or oil, optional

Method:

1. Rinse Thoroughly
   Wash the Foxtail Millet 2–3 times with clean water to remove surface dust and impurities.

2. Soak (Optional)
   Soak for approximately 20–30 minutes for more even cooking and a softer texture. Drain well before cooking.

3. Cook the Millet
   Add 1 cup Foxtail Millet and approximately 2–2½ cups fresh water to a saucepan. Add salt and ghee or oil if desired.

4. Bring to a Boil
   Bring the mixture to a gentle boil over medium-high heat.

5. Simmer & Cover
   Reduce the heat to low, cover, and simmer for approximately 15–20 minutes, or until the millet is tender and the water has been absorbed.

6. Rest
   Turn off the heat and leave covered for approximately 5 minutes.

7. Fluff & Serve
   Gently fluff with a fork and serve warm, or cool before using in salads and grain bowls.

💡 Cooking Tip

For light and fluffy Foxtail Millet, rinse thoroughly and avoid excessive stirring while cooking. Water absorption can vary slightly depending on the grain and cooking method, so adjust the water according to your preferred texture.

For khichdi or porridge, increase the water and cook until the millet reaches a soft, creamy consistency.
