What it is
This is a package of whole grain sorghum, a versatile ancient grain. The grains are intact and have not been processed beyond cleaning and milling. Sorghum has a mild, slightly sweet flavor and a chewy texture when cooked. It is a good option for those seeking alternative grains.
How people cook with it
Whole grain sorghum can be incorporated into many meals, offering a hearty and wholesome addition.
- Cooked as a side dish
- Added to salads
- Used in grain bowls
- Incorporated into baked goods
To cook whole grain sorghum, rinse the grains thoroughly. Combine one part sorghum with three parts water or broth in a saucepan. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat, cover, and simmer for about 50-60 minutes, or until tender and the liquid is absorbed. Let it stand for a few minutes before fluffing with a fork. It can be served hot as a side dish or chilled and added to salads and grain bowls. It also works well in some baked goods, adding a unique texture and flavor.

How to keep the rest
Store any unused portion in a cool, dry place in an airtight container. This helps maintain its freshness and prevents it from absorbing moisture or odors. Properly stored, it can last for a considerable time.
