Amaranth

Amaranth is known for its nutty flavor making it a popular choice for culinary use as a whole grain, green, micro-green, and sprout. You can find it available in both red and green leaf varieties that are tender and filled with flavor. If you are someone who has a health condition or diet restricting your intake of gluten, this is the grain for you. As it is gluten-free you can include it in most diets. You may also grind it into flour for use in baking and cooking.
