🌾 What is Foxtail Millet Poha?

Foxtail Millet, known as Thinai in Tamil and Kangni in Hindi, is one of the world's oldest cultivated crops and holds a place of great reverence in Tamil culture and Sangam literature. It is named after its fox-tail shaped seed head and is celebrated as the King of Millets for its outstanding nutritional profile. Poha refers to the flattened or beaten form of the grain — a traditional processing method that makes it quicker to cook, lighter to digest, and incredibly versatile. The result is a beautiful small, golden-yellow flake that is mild in flavour and packed with nutrition.
