Tentang bahan ini

One of Japan's oldest cultivated grains, awa (Setaria italica, foxtail millet) was a staple before rice cultivation became dominant. Iwate, Akita, Nagano and Hokkaido are the principal modern producers. Used in awa-mochi (millet mochi), gokoku (five-grain) blends, and increasingly as a gluten-free, high-protein, high-iron functional grain. Distinct from kibi (proso millet) and hie (barnyard millet) — Japan's traditional millet trio.
