![]() Are you craving something new in your summer salads and foods? Maybe Amaranth is the answer? Amaranth is a high protein microgreen with a stunning color. This organic and heirloom variety has a charming red and magenta color. According to the OldWays Whole Grains Counsel, the genus Amaranthus contains upwards of 70 species of plants and can be found on every continent. Only a dozen or so of the Amaranthus species have been cultivated by humans, selected either for their seed head or greens. With striking stalks, broad leaves and impressively bright purple, red, or gold flowers, amaranth is also often grown for ornamental purposes. Our Amaranth microgreens are of the Red Garnet variety (Amaranthus tricolor). Amaranth microgreens add pizzazz to any dish. Best suited for raw applications as their delicate nature cannot withstand high heat preparations. They have a mild, earthy flavor that complements both sweet and savory dishes, and they are commonly used as a garnish. They can be piled over salmon or pasta, placed in sandwiches, served over quinoa, and mixed into green salads. Micro Red Amaranth greens are best left undressed and added only at the very final stage of finishing a dish. The delicate leaves will wilt if exposed to prolonged heat and cannot stand up to heavy dressings and sauces. This micro is only available for a limited time (June - August). The micros are $6 for a 1.5 ounce container and are only available via email. They are not available on our website.
