"Introducing Proso Millet" by Caroline Saunders in Bluedot Living (22 Aug. 2025) spotlights this grain as a highly water efficient crop and tasty food. https://bluedotliving.com/introducing-proso-millet Among the millets, proso is already an established if relatively minor grain crop in the northern Great Plains, and one that has great potential in the face of climate challenges and dwindling groundwater reserves. A key to its wider adoption in North America is how it can gain wider acceptance in our diets. (It's typically sold in the US labeled simply as "millet.") The article features quotes from Prof. James Schnable (University of Nebraska-Lincoln & Dryland Genetics), Joni Kindwall-Moore (Snacktivist & NAMA), and Gary Wietgrefe (also of NAMA). It also references Bob's Red Mill and the work of Brian Levy (cookbook author and recipe developer). Note the recipe for Millet and Hazelnut Stone Fruit Galette at the end of the article..
