Millet is a small-seeded cereal grain from the genus Panicum, cultivated for human consumption and animal feed. It has a light, mildly nutty flavor and cooks quickly, often used in porridges, side dishes, or blended into flour. As a word, millet also refers to small, grain-like seeds of various grasses. Essentially, it denotes both a crop and its edible grain, commonly found in dry, warm regions.
