things people ask

• How many grams in a teaspoon of millet flour?
  About 2.48 g level. Heaping pushes it to 3.5-4 g. Teaspoon-scale additions matter most when you're testing a gluten-free dough that won't hold shape — adding millet flour one teaspoon at a time lets you firm the texture without overshooting and ending up with a dry, crumbly loaf you can't recover.
• Why would I add a single teaspoon of millet flour to a recipe?
  Two practical reasons. First, to absorb excess moisture in a GF batter that's pooling rather than mounding — a teaspoon (2.48 g) per cup of batter usually gets you there. Second, to introduce a faint nutty-sweet note in a savoury rub or pancake base where you don't want a full grain swap, just a hint of millet's character behind the spices.
• Can I use millet flour teaspoon-for-teaspoon as a cornstarch substitute?
  No. Cornstarch is a pure starch and thickens roughly twice as effectively as millet flour, which still contains protein and bran. To match one teaspoon of cornstarch, use about two teaspoons of millet flour (around 5 g). The result is cloudier and slightly grainier than a cornstarch slurry, but it works for rustic gravies and bean dishes.
