Nutritional Benefits

Amaranth (amaranto / rajgira) is a naturally gluten-free ancient grain that provides complete plant protein along with fiber, iron, and calcium. It has a mild, nutty flavor and a versatile texture – light and crisp when popped, creamy when simmered. A wholesome, plant-based pantry staple.


How to Cook

To pop amaranth, heat a dry pan over medium-high and add a small spoonful at a time, swirling as the grains burst into tiny puffs within seconds. To cook it as porridge, simmer one part amaranth in about three parts water for 20–25 minutes until soft and creamy, stirring occasionally.
