Customer reviews
I've got to admit, I hadn't heard of Amaranth until a few years ago. It is slightly different from Quinoa - you have to cook it for slightly longer and it doesn't quite puff up as much. I've heard it's even more nutritious though. Personally I can't eat it straight - just because it gets a bit repetitive - so I add raisins or other dried fruit to it - and it's great. Feels very authentic.
By on I have been using this to thicked my seasonal soups and it has been a delcious addition to my diet.
