Wondergrain yields 3 times its volume when cooked.
Rinse before use
- In a small saucepan, bring 2 cups of water or broth, ½ Tbsp of oil and salt to a boil.
- Add 1/2 cup of pearled Wondergrain sorghum. Cover and bring back to a full boil for 5 minutes, then reduce heat to medium.
- Keep covered. When water is at the level of the grain, reduce heat to low/simmer. Cook until water dries completely and the grain has puffed up. Fluff up with a fork. Grain will be tender with a pleasant bite.
TIPS:
- Grain must cook for at least 45 minutes .
- Avoid using a large saucepan if cooking small amounts, as water will evaporate too quickly.
- Drain excess liquid if grain has reached desired texture.
- For a softer bite, add more liquid.
- If a bit pasty because you’ve used too much liquid or cooked it too long, just spread open on a plate. Once it cools down, fluff up with a fork.
- To reheat on the stovetop and loosen up the grain, moisten with liquid – Do not drench.
- To reheat in the microwave and loosen up the grain, cover with a wet paper towel.
