Amaranth
Directions
To cook amaranth boil 1 cup seeds in 2-1/2 cups liquid such as water or half water and half stock or apple juice until seeds are tender, about 18 to 20 minutes. For a breakfast cereal increase the cooking liquid to 3 cups and sweeten, you can also add raisins, dried fruit, cinnamon, nutmeg, or allspice and some nuts. Note:
Amaranth can be cooked as a cereal, ground into flour, popped like popcorn, sprouted, or toasted. The seeds can be cooked with other whole grains, added to stir-fry or to soups and stews as a nutrient dense thickening agent.
