Finger millet or zviyo is a big part of many rural homes’ diet. It is most popular as part of the traditional alcoholic brew known as masese, it is an opaque beer and also in the non-alcoholic drink maheu. It is also used to make sadza and porridge using the same methods as you would with maize meal. Though not proven scientifically, it is widely believed that finger millet is more nutritious compared to maize meal. One thing that I know from experience is that if you are having tummy problems, eating a meal with finger millet will help you feel better.
