Why Should Millets Be Served in Restaurants?

For those who are allergic to gluten, millets are an excellent substitute.
They are effective as grains for weight loss since they’re packed
with high natural fibre content. They taste amazing and are simple
to digest and can be considered an excellent source of carbohydrates,
protein, fibre, and amino acids. The hospitality industry in India
utilizes millet in the following ways:

• Dishes made of millet: A lot of hotels and restaurants have
begun to include millet biryanis, dosas idlis, and upmas on
their menus.
• Millet-based bread: As alternative options for conventional
bread, certain restaurants and cafes are now offering millet-
based bread like ragi bread or bajra bread.
• Millet-based desserts: Millets are also being used in desserts,
such as millet pudding, millet kheer, and millet laddoos.
• Millet-based drinks: Millets are also being used to make
healthy and nutritious drinks, such as millet smoothies and
millet-based energy drinks.
• Millet-based snacks: Many hotels and restaurants are now
offering millet-based snacks, such as millet chips, millet
popcorn, and millet-based trail mixes.
