How people cook with it
Whole grain sorghum can be cooked and used in many ways, similar to other grains like rice or quinoa. It adds a hearty texture and nutty flavor to dishes.
- Cooked as a side dish
- Added to salads
- Incorporated into grain bowls
- Used in baking
To cook whole grain sorghum, rinse the grains thoroughly under cold water. 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 45 to 60 minutes, or until the grains are tender and have absorbed the liquid. Let it stand, covered, for 5-10 minutes before fluffing with a fork. It can be served warm or chilled. For baking, it can be ground into flour or used as whole grains in recipes.
How it differs from similar foods
