Tiny sorghum grains, naturally gluten-free and densely nutritious, puff up beautifully when popped over high heat. You can snack on popped sorghum as you would on popcorn, either plain or sprinkled with chili powder or finely grated Parmesan cheese. It also makes a nutty, crunchy garnish for salads, soups and more. You can even add it to cookie dough in place of tree nuts.
Special Diets:
Method
Heat oil in a large, heavy saucepan over medium heat until hot.
Add sorghum.
Wearing oven mitts to protect your hands, swirl the pan to coat grains with oil. Cover the pan and cook, shaking it every minute or so.
Every now and then, carefully lift the lid and peer in to see if grains are still popping; not all grains will pop (up to half may not), so wait until you see less than 1 or 2 pops every 5 seconds. Sprinkle with salt and serve.
Popped sorghum will keep in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 1 day.
