herlander_refugeeOk, let's get the curiousity party started!
First, the cake which is egg and dairy free! I was given this recipe over 20 years ago and it is fast, easy, and delicious as it came to me---it works pretty decently with gluten free flour mixtures, too. It molds nicely for fancy cakes, too!
I made a chocolate version of this cake (but the pic has vanished) using the recipe I think should be called ( Miracle Cake, Not Crazy )
And now, for the texture of cornbread without the corn! I buy hulled millet at the grocery bulk foods department. I do have a small kitchen grain mill, but to be honest, I rarely use it. The millet stays fresh better whole, so I grind it by the recipe....with the ordinary little cheapo coffee mill I keep for spice grinding. I use the sort that you take the lid off the top and can see the little blade. I do it in two batches to have enough for the recipe. And the nice thing is, it is easy to select the coarseness or fineness of the meal! (I've included dairy free options in parens)
