To clean Fonio before cooking, start by washing the grains in a large bowl with warm water if your Fonio is dry and not of the PRE-COOCKED type. Swish the grains around with your fingers or with a Spatula. Pour out and replace the water several times until it runs clear. Drain well. If you have no intention to immediately cook your Fonio, you can also dry it on a frying pan or in the oven, making sure to keep stirring it while drying.

You can always add a little bit of butter or oil to the fonio while cooking to keep the grains more separated, if you’d like. In a large bowl, wash the fonio grains (or quinoa) by submerging in warm water, swishing the grains around with your fingers, then pouring out and replacing the water several times until it runs clear. Drain well.

When the fonio is clean and soaked, add it to a pot with the water, plant-based milk and sweetener. Here we will add our spices: the cinnamon, cardamom, nutmeg and vanilla.
