A CLOSER LOOK
How to recognize it
Hulled cereal kernels from guzi (Setaria italica), before grinding into flour or batter. Gulong millet is one example, with round, golden-yellow kernels averaging about 0.8 mm.
In the kitchen
Ground with rice to make the batter for Jiyuan egg bufan.
Pre-milled foxtail millet flour is a separate form. The appearance of Gulong millet should not be assumed for the millet used in Jiyuan.
