I am going to guess you need more water...Michelle,<br /><br />I am going to guess you need more water or less cooking time if your millet is turning out crunchy.<br /><br />I also love that the birds get the millet back. Very funny! <br /><br />Dan really enjoys that most people give millet to birds and he eats it. I think that is part of the appeal of eating it for him. Silly man.<br /><br />talk to you later,<br />AliciaVegan Epicureanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08203676819322299569noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3790414766945352054.post-54931757531106908642009-11-29T18:30:14.853-05:002009-11-29T18:30:14.853-05:00hey thanks for that, mine always seems so dry and....hey thanks for that, mine always seems so dry and....crunchy still, my birds always end up getting their millet back...loldirtyduckhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11383110271569591721noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3790414766945352054.post-10931060917153892732009-11-28T18:31:05.878-05:002009-11-28T18:31:05.878-05:00Dani,
Thanks for letting me know you like the sou...Dani,<br /><br />Thanks for letting me know you like the sound of the recipe. I really enjoyed it and the rest of the family had no idea until I told them the potatoes were half cauliflower. It worked perfectly.<br /><br />Michelle,<br /><br />You are welcome. <br /><br />Millet is fabulous, we think. It is my husband's favorite whole grain. He always chooses it when I ask him which one he wants. I make it exactly like rice. Bring to a boil, reduce to a simmer, cover and cook until water has been absorbed then let stand covered for 10 minutes. Fluff with a fork and you are done. If you stir the millet or add too much water it gets gummy. Also it seems to help a lot to let it stand the last 10 minutes covered off the heat. It took me a couple times before I got it right too.<br /><br />talk to you soon,<br />AliciaVegan Epicureanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08203676819322299569noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3790414766945352054.post-67826183466477110902009-11-28T17:58:26.586-05:002009-11-28T17:58:26.586-05:00thanks on the compliments! i havent even tried mas...thanks on the compliments! i havent even tried mashed cauliflower yet, but i know i will like it..especially if i follow a recipe as good as this one looks.maybe i havent done millet correctly...but i dont think i like it that much, ill keep trying though!dirtyduckhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11383110271569591721noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3790414766945352054.post-65796685099249629052009-11-28T17:03:28.192-05:002009-11-28T17:03:28.192-05:00ahh yum!!

Your dinner sounds very hea...Michelle (dirtyduck),<br /><br />Your dinner sounds very healthy and tasty. Good for you. Did Walter enjoy it? Have you tried mashed cauliflower and millet yet? It is on my list to make, but I haven't gotten around to it yet.<br /><br />We were finished early due to the time difference and since my parents are in their 80's we eat early to accomodate them. While eating early is something Dan and I don't normally do, it was nice to have the kitchen cleaned by 8:30 so I had time to relax.<br /><br />talk to you soon,<br />AliciaVegan Epicureanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08203676819322299569noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3790414766945352054.post-48392194902862473142009-11-27T16:58:30.681-05:002009-11-27T16:58:30.681-05:00i wanted to make mashed cauliflower yesterday, tha...i wanted to make mashed cauliflower yesterday, that is so crazy, but i couldnt find any cauliflower that looked good. my fault though for waiting so long! yesterday i made stir fried brown rice, steamed veggies, sauteed spinach with onion and mushroom and some other stuff, so we had a good day. i read about your thanksgiving, it was funny because you were all done cooking, eating, and cleaning and we hadnt even finished cooking yet! loldirtyduckhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11383110271569591721noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3790414766945352054.post-68678920152871745442009-11-27T16:15:42.304-05:002009-11-27T16:15:42.304-05:00Vegbooks,

Thanks so much for the tip.

Pure rutabaga mash is really yum too and less starchy.Rosehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02114977921830686539noreply@blogger.com
