It's a staple of the people of my state Maharashtra's (India) and consumed by almost all the village crowd. It was considered as a grain that was seen by the city people as "food of the poor" until reports of it reducing diabetes levels, lately and now everyone wants to consume it. I make roti out of it, since it doesn't have gluten, it's tough to make a dough, but villagers pour boiled water while kneading it in the proportion of 1 part boiled water to 2 parts sorghum dough and knead it immediately to make big balls, and you can find many tutorials on it over KZbin. All the village food is healthy right from Ragi flour, millet flour, sorghum flour, buckwheat flour. Sadly, us city dwellers don't see them equivalent to our foods until some medical research blasts us for being fools instead. Meanwhile, now with the rarity and scarcity and the health benefits that have come forward, the price for jowar (Sorghum) have shot 10 times. Just like it was for Quinoa for the South Americans.

@@lightdark00 I assume you're referring to rice taking up tons of arsenic from the growing environment, enough that it can be dangerous as a result?

All non-rice grains have been found to be negligible sources of arsenic.

Testing on mice and rats is worth it to learn about what might be dangerous for humans. The alternative is waiting for humans to suffer before we learn that something is harmful. There's no scenario without living things suffering, and it should be rats rather than humans. Just be thankful that humans didn't evolve to be obligate carnivores, or else we'd be forced to kill animals just to survive day-to-day like so many other members of the animal kingdom have to do.

@@elisonlau2076 You cook it ike any other whole grain, say brown rice, quinoa, whole wheat/barley/rye groats, etc. It should probably say on the packet when you buy it suggested cooking time and water amounts! You can probably also Google it online - I got lots of results for "cooking sorghum" :) the "normal" way is on the stovetop in a pot with water (the amounts I get are around 3x water to sorghum, for 40-60 minutes) (no salt needed though most guides will say so) - you can taste as you go though. I would use my electric pressure cooker though, they are super useful as they allow you to not have to babysit the pot. There the time seems to be 20 minutes on high pressure, with only 2xwater to sorghum. However, I would probably soak mine overnight (not needed), but it tends to approximately halve the cooking time, and lower the amount of water needed. But please experiment and find a cooking time that suits your taste! Exact times will depend on where you live with regards to heigh above sea level etc. And it's nothing inherently wrong with "overcooking", if you like it mushier/more like a "porridge". And if it's not cooked enough for you, you can always bring it back to a boil or something. It should work out for you, I hope :)

animal testing is not vegan, did you not google the vegan definition?

[@Paul_K_]

The alternative to lab testing on mice is unscientific testing on humans. If you follow a plant based diet because of the health benefits to humans, you should support lab testing on mice because of the health benefits to humans.

I sell lots of sorghum that I grow as a hobby.

[@chiyerano]

The suspense is killing me. On the other hand, yay for sorghum.

[@vivirilityana7979]

Is this guy talking about amabele?

[@NutritionFactsOrg]

Hi Vivi, I'm Dush a volunteer here at NutritionFacts.org. I did a quick search on google and some retailers do have Sorghum listed as Amabele too.

You can grow your own sorghum easily

[@tybrady1935]

Good point. I see it can easily be hand harvested. All the grain is at the top. You cut the stalk off, hang to dry, then get the seeds off. I should try this!

[@Dollapfin]

Ty Brady you definitely should. Great survival crop. Biggest problem is the birds will eat everything as sorghum is literally used in bird seed and it’s easy for them to get. Normally when planted on hundred acre fields this isn’t a problem and the grain is left on the stalk to fry, but you’ll have to harvest a bit early and hang them like you said. Amaranth is also a super healthy grain that’s easy to grow and harvest at home.

I found black sorghum as birdfeed...

Nothing against you personally, as you've helped me become vegan, and I even bought four of your books, but this new format I can't read with you gesticulating all over the documents, prime example at @1:25. Try to read, good luck! I don't see why you need to be in the video if we're trying to read the facts. Salman Khan of Khan academy was told by a niece that the videos worked well because he wasn't in them. Khan recognized it as a backhanded compliment but the main reason for Khan Academy's success and why people can just focus on the material without distractions. If you want to be in them now as technology has advanced, I'd suggest a smaller overlay in the corner so we can read the docs, but it's overall not needed, as your other videos attest.
