IntroductionLittle millet (Panicum sumatrense L.) is an underutilized, climate-resilient cereal with high nutritional potential; however, information on how conventional processing methods modify its physicochemical, nutritional, and functional properties for food applications is limited.MethodsThis study aimed to evaluate the effects of germination (48 h), steaming (0 and 1.5 kscg for 15 min), and roasting (165 ± 2 °C for 75 s) on the physical, nutritional, and functional characteristics of ...
