High Speed Blender

Ingredients

1 cup yellow or white hulled millet

Instructions

Add 1 cup of whole millet to a clean, dry high-speed blender, grain mill, or food processor. Blend on high, stopping occasionally to wipe down the sides until a fine powder consistency is reached.
Use a fine-mesh sieve to sift the flour into a bowl to remove any coarse pieces if necessary. Re-blend any leftover bits. Transfer the sifted flour to an airtight container or jar. Store in a cool, dark pantry or freeze for a longer shelf life.

Notes

A high-speed blender or grain mill works best. A high-speed blender works faster than a food processor in achieving a powdery fine powder, but a food processor will work just as well.
