INSTRUCTIONS
2 Millet is wonderful. It is fabulous in soups. Here is a recipe from Christina Pirello (a macrobiotic chef and teacher); she made this for us in class last week, and I was in heaven. The millet lent the soup some creaminess (but not like cream of wheat) but it also provided some texture. Rinse millet by placing in a glass bowl and covering with water. Gently swirl grain with your hands to loosen any dust. Drain well. In a soup pot, layer onion, cabbage, squash, carrot and then millet. Add enough water to just cover, careful not to disturb layering too much. Cover and bring to a boil over medium heat. Reduce heat and cook soup for 30 minutes. Remove a small amount of broth and puree the miso. Gently stir into the soup and simmer for another 3-4 minutes. Serve garnished with fresh scallions. (for more of Christina's recipes, check out http://www.christinacooks.com . She does use some oil, but it can be omitted in most recipes without a problem.)
