Bob's Red Mill Whole Grain Millet 28 oz (4-Pack) — Quick-Cooking, Gluten-Free Ancient Grain

Bob's Red Mill Whole Grain Millet is a quick-cooking, gluten-free ancient grain with a mild, slightly sweet flavor that works as a rice alternative in salads, pilafs, stir-fries, and baked goods.

Millet is an ancient seed harvested and milled to produce a whole grain with a gentle texture and neutral taste. This 28 oz package (sold in a convenient 4-pack) from Bob's Red Mill is designed for home cooks who want a versatile staple that cooks fast and adapts easily across meals. Because millet is naturally gluten free and has a light, slightly nutty note, it pairs well with bold sauces, roasted vegetables, and both sweet and savory preparations.

How does Bob's Red Mill millet perform in everyday cooking?

This millet cooks quickly and holds a fluffy, separate-grain texture when prepared like rice, or it can be softened into a creamier porridge depending on liquid ratios and cooking time. It integrates smoothly into salads, bowls, and side dishes without overpowering other ingredients.

• Quick cook time—ready faster than many whole grains
• Fluffy texture when simmered with a 2:1 liquid-to-grain ratio
• Can be simmered longer for porridge or thickened for baking
• Neutral, slightly sweet flavor complements both savory and sweet recipes

What practical uses does millet have in meals and baking?

Millet is highly adaptable: use it as a rice replacement in pilafs and stir-fries, toss cooled, cooked grains into whole grain salads, or add uncooked millet to bread dough for extra crunch and texture. It also makes a quick breakfast porridge with fruit and nuts when simmered with milk or water.

• Substitute for rice or couscous in side dishes and main-course bowls
• Toss into grain salads with herbs, vegetables, and dressings
• Add uncooked millet to bread and crackers for crunch
• Cook into a hot breakfast cereal with milk, spices, and sweeteners

How should I store and prepare this 28 oz package to keep it fresh?

Keep millet in a cool, dry place in its resealable packaging or transfer to an airtight container to preserve aroma and shelf life. For best texture, rinse briefly under cold water before cooking to remove any loose husks, then simmer until grains are tender and liquid is absorbed.

• Store sealed in pantry or airtight jar to maintain freshness
• Rinse before cooking to remove dust and improve fluffiness
• Use a 2:1 liquid-to-grain ratio for fluffy millet; adjust for creamier results
• Keep cooked millet refrigerated up to 4–5 days in an airtight container
