This unpolished millet is naturally gluten-free and offers a wholesome alternative to refined grains like white rice and processed flours.
Browntop millet has been cultivated across dry regions of India for generations. Its small, round grains cook into a soft, fluffy consistency that closely resembles rice but provides a deeper, nuttier taste. This makes it an easy transition grain for those looking to move toward healthier staples without drastically changing their meals.
At Organic Mandya, browntop millet is sourced carefully to maintain its natural integrity. The focus remains on minimal processing, ensuring the grain retains its original nutrients, texture, and usability.

It can be used for daily meals such as rice replacements, one-pot dishes, or traditional recipes like pongal and pulao. Its ability to absorb flavors makes it ideal for both simple and elaborate preparations.
Known in different regions as Korale (Kannada), Hari Kangni (Hindi), Kuthiraivali (Tamil), Andu Korralu (Telugu), Korle (Marathi), Sama (Gujarati), Shyama (Bengali), and Browntop Millet (English), this grain continues to bridge traditional wisdom with modern nutrition.

Browntop millet is sourced from trusted farming communities that follow traditional and sustainable agricultural practices. These farming methods avoid harmful chemicals and focus on maintaining soil health, which contributes to the purity and quality of the grain.
