Nutritional values
Millet is one of the gluten-free cereals and is therefore also given to all those who cannot tolerate gluten protein (e.g. in cases of celiac disease or sprue). The plant, which belongs to the sweet grasses, contains plenty of silicon, which we need for beautiful hair, nails and skin.
The extremely low-fat side dish goes particularly well with dishes with an Arabic touch. Not all dates are the same. Treat yourself to the best quality (free of harmful substances from the organic food store). You will taste it!

Preparation steps
Toast the millet while stirring in a large pan over medium-high heat until it begins to smell fragrant, for a few minutes. Remove and let cool.
Remove pits from dates and cut into small cubes.
Add millet and dates to the vegetable broth in a pot and bring to a boil.
Cover and cook over low heat, stirring occasionally, for about 5 minutes. Remove from heat and allow to rest covered for another 10 minutes. Season to taste with salt and pepper and serve.
