Jowar

Jowar is a towering plant growing over six feet tall, but many other varieties which are generally cultivated are dwarf breeds making it convenient for harvest. As it adapts well to any extreme climatic conditions it is believed to maintain a stable nutrition profile. It is generally red and hard when it is ripe and dried after harvesting to increase the shelf -life of the grain. It is used to make many traditional delights like porridge, bread, cakes, cookies, couscous and malted beverages. However, jowar porridge made with milk and water is the easiest and nutritious dish.
