How to Use Amaranth

Whole grain amaranth can be used in many of the same ways you use other grains, such as oatmeal or quinoa. You can find amaranth flour in some stores, which can be used in baking.Amaranth leaves can be used the same way you would spinach, kale, or Swiss chard.

How to Prepare Amaranth

Amaranth is in season from midsummer until the first hard frost. However, most amaranth is sold in dried form, so you can easily find it all year round. It's most commonly found in South American grocery stores, but it's becoming more common in health food stores, farmers' markets, and even large supermarkets.If you're growing your own amaranth, it's ready for harvest if seeds easily fall away when you roll it between your hands. You can either dry the seeds or eat them fresh.To keep amaranth for a long period, it's best to seal it in an airtight container. If you want to use amaranth as flour, you can grind it in a food processor and freeze the result. It will stay fresh for 6-9 months in the freezer.There are plenty of ways to get amaranth's health benefits as a part of your daily diet:

• Boil whole amaranth grain in a 3:1 ratio of water to amaranth to make porridge
• Pop dried amaranth like popcorn and eat it as a snack
• Put popped amaranth on salads or in soups
• Add amaranth to your rice for a protein boost
• Blend amaranth into a smoothie for a nutty flavor
• Make amaranth flour and bake with it
• Bread fish or meat with amaranth flour
