Amaranth

Amaranth is an ancient grain native to Central and South America, now widely cultivated across India (where this is sourced) for its exceptional nutrition and versatility. This gluten-free seed has a delicate, nutty flavor and a pleasantly light crunch when cooked. High in plant-based protein, calcium, and iron, amaranth is also rich in fiber and naturally contains lysine, an essential amino acid often lacking in other grains. It’s a nutritious choice for modern kitchens and professional foodservice settings alike.

Amaranth can be simmered to make a hearty porridge, popped like popcorn for a crunchy topping, or blended into baked goods, soups, and veggie burgers. It’s also valued for its wholesomeness and light, sustaining quality. Supplied in a 10-pound bulk bag, this amaranth is ideal for foodservice, catering, or chefs looking to incorporate nutrient-dense, naturally gluten-free grains into their menus.
