TOASTED MILLET TABBOULEH
Millet is one of the most delicate of grains and can be prepared in three very distinct ways-it can be popped, toasted and simmered into a fluffy pilaf (as in this recipe) or left untoasted and made into a creamy porridge. It's a great source of plant protein and is gluten-free. We love using it here as the base for tabbouleh in place of the more traditional bulgur wheat.

Steps:
- Put the millet in a medium saucepan over medium heat and swirl until lightly golden and toasted, 6 to 8 minutes. Pour in 1 1/2 cups of water and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium low, cover and simmer until most of the water is absorbed and the millet is tender, about 15 minutes. Remove from the heat and let sit, covered, for 10 minutes. Fluff with a fork and cool.
- Combine the cooled millet, parsley, cucumbers, tomato, radishes, scallions, lemon juice, oil, 3/4 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper in a medium bowl. Serve at room temperature or chilled.
OVEN-BAKED MILLET
Deborah Madison, in her wonderful new cookbook, "Vegetable Literacy," put a new spin on millet that may have changed my millet-cooking life forever. She suggests cooking the grain as you would a polenta, which it kind of resembles when it's cooked, with most of the grains breaking down to a mush while others remain crunchy. I'd always been a bit flummoxed by this uneven cooking and the texture of the broken-down millet (it's a bit chalky). But serving it like a polenta makes perfect sense. You can serve it soft, right after it's cooked, or let it set up and then slice it and crisp the slices or use them in gratins, as I do with cornmeal polenta. I was so taken with this idea that I decided to cook the millet in the oven, the way I do for my easy cornmeal polenta, after first toasting it in the pan. It worked beautifully.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Heat a 10-inch cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat and add the millet. Toast, stirring or shaking the pan, until the grains begin to pop and smell toasty, sort of like popcorn. Add the water or stock and the salt.
- Transfer the pan to the preheated oven. Set the timer for 25 minutes and give the millet a stir. Bake for another 25 minutes. There should still be some liquid in the pan. Stir in the butter and bake for another 5 to 10 minutes, until the millet is thick and no more water or stock is visible in the pan. Remove from the oven; if desired, stir in the Parmesan. Serve right away, topped with tomato sauce or a stew. Alternatively, allow to cool, either in the pan or spread in a small sheet pan, baking dish or cake pan; when it is solid, cut into squares, slices or rounds, which you can grill, fry or layer in a gratin.

Steps:
- The toasted millet porridge can be made days ahead, or you can start the toast/soak when you begin to build your starter. Then at the porridge-boil stage, you can autolyse your flour.
- Porridge
- In a dry pan on medium heat, toast the 150g millet for 2-3 minutes, mixing and shifting it around. You should hear occasional popping and smell a nice aroma.
- Transfer the millet to a medium bowl and add 470 ml of water (2 cups). Cover and let sit 5 hours to overnight. When it has soaked sufficiently, you will be able to split a seed with your nail.
- Pour the contents of the bowl into a saucepan, and bring to a boil on your smallest burner. Cover the pan and lower the heat to simmer. Set a timer for 20 minutes. When the timer goes off, turn off the heat but leave the lid on for 10 additional minutes. Then fluff, cool and use.
- Bread
- The instructions in italics are for the Tartine method. However, you may also mix all the ingredients together at once (I still suggest one stretch and fold after 20-30 minutes, mostly to ensure ingredient incorporation) and then resume the instructions after the italics section.
- Mix the flours and water, holding back about 1/4 cup of water. Cover and allow the dough to autolyse for 1-4 hours.
- Add the starter to the dough by pinching and kneading until it is incorporated. Cover again and let rest for 20-30 minutes.
- Begin a series of four rounds of stretching and folding, 20-30 minutes between each round.
- Before the second stretch and fold, dissolve the salt in the reserved water. Add the salt water and the toasted millet porridge to the dough. Pinch, squeeze, and knead with two hands until it is well distributed into the dough.
- Cover and let the dough ferment for several more hours. Total fermentation time depends on room temperature, but will likely be 6-10 hours.
- When the dough has roughly doubled in size and there are some bubble on the surface, flour your countertop and scrape the dough out onto it.
- If you've made a double dough (i.e. not halved the recipe), cut the dough in half and pre-shape it into round or oval balls, depending on the type of baking vessel(s) you have.
- Cover the dough with plastic and let it rest for ~20 minutes.
- Prepare your proofing basket(s) by dusting them with flour or bran flakes.
- Shape your doughs into tight round or oval shapes, transfer them to the proofing baskets, and cover. You can also roll the tops of the doughs in millet before placing them in the banneton (millet-side down) to proof. I find the seeds too hard to chew, however, so I don't do this -- even though it looks attractive.
- Proof at room temperature for 1-2 hours, or in the refrigerator for 5-10 hours.
- Preheat your oven with the baking vessel(s) inside for 30 min at 500F.
- If you are doing 2 breads and only have one baking vessel, you can use the refrigerator to slow down the proof of one of the doughs, so that you bake the breads separately (different days, several hours apart, or in succession). If you bake one after the other, I suggest a 15 minute re-preheat of the baking vessel before bread #2.
- When the final proof and the preheating are complete, take the baking vessel from the oven. Gently flip the dough out of the basket and into the bottom of your baking vessel. Score the top of the dough. Cover and return the vessel to the oven.
- Bake at:
- 500F for 30 minutes lid on
- 450F for 10-15 minutes lid off
- When finished, the internal temp should be 205F or more.
- Remove the baking vessel from the oven and transfer the bread to a cooling rack.
- Let cool at least 1 hour before cutting. If you've chosen the higher hydration recipe variation, you may want to wait longer than 1 hour before cutting.

Steps:
- In a medium saucepan, bring 2 1/2 cups water to a boil. Meanwhile, coat bottom of a large saute pan with 1 teaspoons of the olive oil. Add millet and cook, stirring, over medium low heat until it gives off a toasted aroma, about 10 minutes. Add boiling hot water. Cover and cook over medium low heat until water is absorbed and millet is tender, about 25 minutes. Uncover and cool.
- Meanwhile, coat salmon with 1 teaspoons of the soy sauce. Heat a large skillet over high heat. When hot, add fillets, reduce heat to medium and cook until browned, about 3 minutes. Turn over and cook until the salmon is cooked through, 3-5 minutes longer. Remove from heat. Cool in pan. Break into 1" pieces.
- Heat a small saucepan of water to a boil. Add snow peas and cook 1 minute. Drain, rinse, and blot dry.
- In a large bowl, whisk vinegar, 2 tbsp water, sesame oil, ginger, garlic, salt, and remaining olive oil and soy sauce. Reserve 1 tbsp of the mixture. Toss millet with the dressing. In a small bowl, toss scallions, pepper, snow peas, and reserved dressing. Add half the vegetables and the salmon to the millet.
- Spoon millet salad onto a platter. Top with remaining vegetables. Serve and enjoy!
TOASTED MILLET SALAD WITH CUCUMBER, AVOCADO AND LEMON
Cooked millet has a taste and aroma that's subtly reminiscent of raw hazelnuts, and as with hazelnuts, toasting millet first really deepens its flavor. If you want to work ahead, toast and cook the millet, set aside and toss in the other ingredients when ready. Sharp mint leaves, creamy avocado, crisp cucumbers and bright lemon really round out this dish, which makes a lovely side dish, an afternoon snack or the base of a protein-focused grain bowl. Millet is marvelous, but a wide variety of grains will work just as well.

Steps:
- To a small pot set over medium heat, add the millet and toast, swirling the pan constantly until the grains begin to crackle, become fragrant and deepen in color to a deep tan, about 10 minutes.
- Turn heat to low and carefully add 1 1/4 cups water, season with salt, bring to a simmer and cook, partly covered, until the millet is softened, about 15 minutes. Remove the millet from the heat, and stir in 1 tablespoon olive oil and let sit covered for at least 10 minutes. Fluff with a fork, and allow to cool to room temperature. You can do this step ahead and store the cooked millet in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. (If using other grains, toast first, then cook according to package directions.)
- While the millet cooks, make the vinaigrette: Combine the lemon zest, juice and honey in a small bowl and whisk to incorporate. Add the remaining 3 tablespoons of olive oil and whisk until emulsified. Season with salt and pepper.
- Toss the cooled millet with cucumbers, mint, almonds (if using) and half of the lemon vinaigrette; divide among bowls. Top each bowl with an avocado quarter and dress with spoonfuls of vinaigrette.
