Xiaomi Rice Exclusive

Millet parboiled until just tender, then drained and steamed into separate, fluffy grains with a delicate nutty flavor, a lighter, drier alternative to millet porridge.

Instructions

  1. 1

    The weather is getting hot, and I'm afraid the millet will get worms. Cooking porridge uses less, so today I'll steam some millet rice.

    Rinse the millet.

    Bring an appropriate amount of water to a boil in the pot.

    Add the millet.

    Keep stirring with a spatula to prevent sticking to the bottom.

    Cook for about four minutes. Pinch it by hand; if the outside crumbles easily while the inside still has a hard core, it is roughly 60% cooked.

    Use a slotted spoon to scoop out the millet and drain the water. Do not discard the millet cooking water; it is the essence of millet, commonly known as millet oil, which is nutritious and particularly tasty.

    Place in the steamer and steam for 10 minutes.

    After steaming the millet rice, open the lid to let the steam evaporate a bit, and fluff it with chopsticks to make it looser.
