They are boiled as a side and porridge, added to soups, meatballs, cabbage rolls, bakes, vegetable cutlets, salads (tabbouleh-type) and pilaf, and also used for fillings.

The millet and wheat pie is a tribute to Russian culinary tradition, which values simple yet nutritious dishes. The recipe is based on grains - millet and cracked wheat, making it hearty and rich. Its taste resembles classic porridge but gains sweet, warm notes when combined with sugar, cinnamon, and vanillin. A light acidity from vinegar adds zest, while the airy texture makes the pie surprisingly tender. It is perfect for family breakfasts or cozy evenings with tea. This pie reveals the richness of Russian cuisine, where the ability to turn simple ingredients into true gastronomic pleasure is a real tradition.
