{"title":"Millet Flour","description":"\u003cp\u003eMillet flour is ground from whole millet grains. Bajra or bajri flour, from pearl millet, is grey green and makes the thick bajra rotla of Gujarat and Rajasthan, eaten with garlic chutney, jaggery and ghee. Jowar or juwar flour, from sorghum, is pale and mild and makes Maharashtrian bhakri. Ragi flour, from finger millet, is reddish brown and becomes ragi mudde, ragi dosa, porridge and Sri Lankan kurakkan roti.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eEach flour behaves differently. Bajra has the strongest flavour and is best in winter dishes; jowar is the easiest to work and the mildest; ragi shines in porridge, dosa batter and sweet ladoo. Millet flours do not form a gluten network, so they are patted by hand and do not puff like wheat rotis. A small bag is sensible for a first try, and \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/fudco\"\u003eFudco\u003c\/a\u003e packs both bajri and ragi flour.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eKnead millet flour with hot water, which softens the starch and helps it bind, and make only as much dough as you will cook at once.
