Cookbook 27, Recipe 1 (Total 56)
We actually made two recipes from this cookbook for Stephen's Dad on Fathers Day. It's been a heck of a week and I haven't been able to post until now - a rare exception to the rule of posting on the same day.
Stephen wanted to cook a side that wasn't potatoes - we were looking for a buckwheat recipe but this worked with our plans and groceries better.
Normally we don't cook with bacon grease but we thought that our sister-in-law who is allergic to dairy might be coming over. Bacon grease was a better option than crisco and gave us an excuse to have BLT's for lunch!
Did I like it? Yes - it was a nice change from potatoes. Crunchy.
Recipe:
Boil 2 cups of water with 1.5 T bacon grease and 1/2 tsp salt. Slow pour in 1 cup of millet. Simmer until the water is almost fully absorbed. Pour into an 8 inch square pan and bake at 350 for 35 minutes. "serve drenched with gravy".
