Organic Amaranth Grain (Seeds) by Hatton Hill Organic. Organically grown, harvested and dried in India. Packed in the UK.

Amaranth seed is a high-protein, gluten-free alternative to rice, grains and pasta. It has been cultivated for upwards of 8,000 years, and was a staple of the Inca, Maya and Aztec civilisations. As a "pseudocereal", it’s technically not a cereal grain in the sense that wheat or oats are, but it's used in very similar ways.

It's great in porridge and polenta-style recipes, it adds texture and nutritional value to baked goods, you can use it in a similar way to barley, rice and other grains in soups, and it can even be popped like popcorn.

Amaranth has an impressive nutritional profile. A complete protein, it contains all nine essential amino acids, and it's around 14% protein – almost double the protein value of rice and corn.
