Crunch. Pop. Crisp. Boom.
That satisfying sound when you bite into your favorite millet snack?
Itβs not just taste β itβs technology.
But waitβ¦ βextrusionβ? Sounds industrial, right?
Letβs clear the air.
At Millet and Minutes β Dukan, we believe in being honest about how food is made β especially when itβs as cool (and misunderstood) as this.
πΎ What Even Is Extrusion?
Think of it like this:
Extrusion is to food what sculpting is to clay β a way to shape and cook ingredients using heat, pressure, and precision.
We take nutrient-rich millet flours, blend them with natural ingredients, and pass them through an extruder β a machine that gives shape, texture, and that iconic snap to your crisps, pops, and pasta.
This process also cooks the food β without frying or drowning it in oil.
π‘ Why We Use It
Letβs bust a few myths:
β Itβs not artificial
β Itβs just smart cooking. No deep frying, no chemical shortcuts.
β It doesnβt kill nutrition
β In fact, it locks in nutrients while making the product shelf-stable and snackable.
β Itβs not βjunkβ
β Youβve just seen it used badly in ultra-processed snacks. We flipped the script.
π¬ Millet + Extrusion = Power Snack
Millets are ancient grains β full of fiber, iron, B vitamins, and slow-digesting carbs.
But to make them appealing for todayβs fast, fun, mobile life, they need a form change.
Thatβs where extrusion gives us the power to:
Create crunchy puffs that kids (and adults) actually love
Make crisps without frying
Shape noodles and pasta with better texture
Do it all without compromising health
π‘οΈ Clean Process. Zero Guilt.
No deep frying
No artificial flavoring
No preservatives
No drama
Just real millets, processed with real tech, to give you real flavor β and real nutrition.
π Weβre Not Hiding It β Weβre Proud of It
Other brands might bury this info in small print.
Weβre putting it in bold headlines.
Because when you know how your food is made β and why β you eat better. You feel better. You choose better.
π― Final Crunch:
Extrusion isnβt a dirty word.
Itβs how we turned a grain from your grandmotherβs field into a snack for your 3PM cravings.
At Millet and Minutes β Dukan, we donβt just make food fast.
We make it smart.
