Basic Pearled White Recipe

“Cook me, freeze me, reheat me and I will be as delicious as if you had just cooked me. I never, ever get soggy!”

Serves: Approx. 2

Cooking time: Approx. 35 minutes

Important:  See liquid to grain ratio at the end of the recipe.

Basic cooking instructions:

Rinse before use

  1. In a small saucepan, bring 2 cups of water or broth, 1/2 Tbsp of oil and salt to a boil.
  2. Add 1/2 cup of pearled Wondergrain sorghum. Cover and bring back to a full boil for 5 minutes, then reduce heat to medium.
  3. 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 35mns.
  • 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 stove top to loosen up the grain, moisten with liquid, do not drench.
  • To reheat in the microwave to loosen up the grain, cover with a wet paper towel.
