Directions

  1. Cook the millet and let it steam, covered, away from direct heat.
  2. Grate the celeriac and carrots. In a small bowl, combine 1 crushed clove of garlic with 1 tablespoon of oil, then add water. Stir in the thyme and basil, and bring to a simmer for 1 minute.
  3. Add half of the chopped celery and carrot, and bring to a boil. Remove from heat and let cool.
  4. Add the cooked millet, the remaining celery and carrot, and the flavored oil, then blend. ≈ 4 min
  5. Chop the alfalfa, red onion, parsley, garlic stem, or other raw vegetables, and sprinkle them over the cream just before serving – this adds a nice crunch, which is important. ≈ 8 min
