Amaranth is an ancient plant grown for its spinach-like leaves as well as its grain. Amaranth is not only high in protein, but contains lysine, an essential amino acid rarely found in plants. This makes it, like quinoa, an ideal grain for vegetarians and vegans in search of nutritive grains.
Applications: Amaranth’s nutty flavor is best cultivated through toasting the grain prior to cooking it. It can be used as a substitute for wheat berries or flour, and can even be popped like popcorn. To cook the whole grain on the stove, simmer 1 cup of amaranth grain in 1 ½ cups water for 35 minutes. This will result in 2 ½ cups of cooked amaranth.
How to Store and Share: Please keep grains in a cool, dry place.
Specifications: Organic amaranth is sold in 10lb bags.
Shipping Method: UPS Ground
