Gluten-Free Yummmy Sorghum Millet Pitimi, Milled Coarse Grain

Also known as millet or sorghum, Pitimi is a nutritious whole grain that is a great source of essential nutrients such as copper, manganese, phosphorus, and magnesium, which is crucial for a heart-healthy diet. It is gluten-free and believed to have originated from Africa, specifically Ethiopia.

To cook millet, it is important to rinse it thoroughly under running water to remove any dirt or debris. Once rinsed, add one part millet to two and a half parts boiling water or broth. Bring the liquid to a boil, then reduce the heat, cover, and simmer for approximately 25 minutes. This cooking method will result in fluffy millet similar to rice. For a creamier consistency, stir the millet frequently and add a little water as needed.

Pitimi, the Haitian Creole translation for sorghum or millet, is a ancient grain that is high in protein, fiber, and antioxidants, with a low glycemic index that is suitable for individuals with diabetes and can help improve heart health. Similar to quinoa, millet can be used in breakfast porridge dishes, as a rice substitute, and in savory pilafs.
