Millet and green bean rice is made with carefully selected ingredients. It must use millet from Keluo, which is abundantly produced there, as well as green beans from Keluo. The millet from Keluo is bright yellow, round, and shiny—neither sticky nor crumbly—and is highly nutritious. The green beans are a staple vegetable in northern China, a very common landrace variety. The cooking method is as follows: first, wash two jin of millet clean, then cook it in an iron pot until it is about 80% done before removing it; next, take one jin of green beans, trim and wash them, and dice them. Put some sunflower oil in the pan, heat it to a moderate temperature, then add minced garlic and chopped scallions. Add the green beans and stir-fry them until they turn a vibrant green, then add refined salt and ground Sichuan peppercorn. Stir-fry a few more times, then add some water and MSG. Place the drained millet on top of the green beans, cover, and simmer over low heat for ten minutes. When serving, stir the dish up and down so the grains and beans mix evenly—you’ll enjoy fragrant, delicious, and authentic millet and green bean rice.
