Sorghum,
also known as Jowar is widely regarded as the “new quinoa” due to its
gluten-free, whole grain goodness. The ancient grain, a member of the millet
family, is experiencing a revival as people move away from refined wheat
products, which are not considered healthy. Because of its high nutrient
content, Jowar is a desirable grain for good health.
