The Christmas Breeze is on the air. I hope everything is find and good!

I want to show you about the one of the basic or common food of my boss. They are not rice or corn lover but eating processed wheat, barley and sorghum and millet. And just last week I went to the market to buy fish and I found men processing the sorghum plant new harvest. I was not sure what is the English name of these crop/cereal plants. Now I know as I search in google.

This is the farmland where they harvested this crop and sell direct to the buyer in the market.

Manual segregation of the seeds from the trunk.

After the segregation, the customer will buy the seeds. Like my boss, they have someone to grind it manually using stone. They cleaned the stone and soaked in the water overnight. They removed the water and grind it using two stones, one flat stone and rounded stone. The stones are intended for this kind of process.

*This is how it looks like a dough without baking or yeast. Its organic edible from plant itself.

To cook for it, the nonstick casserole will be heard, no out and paste the sorghum dough in the sides of the very hot casserole and it has a little amount of salt.*

After 1 of 2 hours, it could be well cooked but that is not the final process.

Boil a water, put plenty of powder milk, add sugar and the cooked sorghum added gently before the water with milk boiled briskly.

The final processed and ready to served. It is so important to a nursing mother to her new born baby. It is helpful to produce milk in our breast.

Sorghum porridge is also good to a sick person. It gives aroma to eat well than serving rice.

That's an interesting kind of plants and one of the common food served in the house of my employer. Sorghum is not common to our country and heard about it imported from U.S.A.

That's for now and Merry Christmas!

Hive On!
