AdunaOrganic Fonio Supergrain | Ancient African Whole Grain Rich in Iron, Zinc, B Vitamins & Fiber | Natural Gluten-Free Rice, Quinoa & Couscous Alternative | Porridge, Salads, & Stir-Fries | 1kgEU Organic

Fonio is a superfood for me according to my SWAMI GenoType3 which incorporates my Opus 23. I can't buy it in local markets so this is convenient for me to receive it from Amazon.

Quite possibly the fastest and easiest grain to cook up of them all---combine that with the potent protein and it being essentially either about as apt to pair with anything as the likes of sushi rice or oddly enough able to pinch hit for grits/polenta/etc better than makes any sense and you've got yourself a winner.I also appreciated this incarnation not needing any straining or sifting upon soaking unlike some prior tilts at Fonio have.In a better world, the likes of this would be ubiquitous on the shelves as it absolutely does the job and does it well---but given the world we still dwell in, at least now I know it can be had here at a good value going forward.

Not for me. Texture of gritty sand and awful taste. Waste of money for sure.

It came fast. It was not damaged.

Good

This is the hands-down BEST breakfast cereal alternative - protein, Gluten Free, no need for milk even:1/4 c Fonio grain (they're teeny tiny, but absorb a LOT of liquid)1 c apple cider (or you can use water here too and maybe maple syrup for sweetener - with cider you need nothing else - 100% cider is TOO sweet for us1c waterI like to toast the grain first in dry pan, then combine with the cider/water and the following:Chopped candied ginger (2T?)~ same amount both dried currants (nice and smaller than raisins) and unsweetened dried cranberries ( sold here in ~ 3 oz pkgs but that 's a lot - they are chopped so I don't need to) and not sticky like regular "dried" cranberries with sugar.I get that to boiling on Hi and turn to low to simmer till desired consistency. But watch it - the little buggars will stick otherwise. We add chopped nuts just before serving and you can use milk or half-and-half if you make it a bit thicker.Enjoy!

Smelled a little stale but when cooked was okay. Perfect for adding a high protein easily digestible grain to my homemade dog food. Haven’t made a recipe using it for myself yet.

Great taste and texture! I make these just as if I were making grits. Much Healthier Option!
