Description

Finger millet is important millet grown extensively in various regions of India and Africa, constitutes as a staple food for a large segment of the population in these countries. It ranks sixth in production after wheat, rice, maize, sorghum and bajra in India. It is a naked caryopsis with brick red-coloured seed coat and is generally used in the form of the whole meal for preparation of traditional foods, such as roti , mudde (dumpling) and ambali (thin porridge). Epidemiological studies have demonstrated that regular consumption of whole grain cereals and their products can protect against the risk of cardiovascular diseases, type II diabetes, gastrointestinal cancers and a range of other disorders. Since the millets are normally prepared from the whole meal, the dietary fiber, minerals, phenolics and vitamins concentrated in the outer layer of the grain or the seed coat form the part of the food and offer their nutritional and health benefits . In case the millet is processed to separate out the seed coat matter as is normally done in millet malting and milling, it could be used as an adjunct in special food applications.
