🌱 Organic The amaranth offered by Oltresole, in a convenient 5 kg format, is certified organic and is a highly nutritious and versatile food. Although not a true cereal, amaranth is classified as a pseudocereal: its small round grains are actually seeds produced by the plant's flower. 🌟 Superfood | 💪 Plant Proteins With ancient origins, this superfood was already known and appreciated by pre-Columbian civilizations, particularly the Aztecs, who considered it the "grain of the gods." Today, it is increasingly used in the West, especially by those following a vegetarian or vegan diet, thanks to its high protein content and excellent combination of fiber, vitamins (A, C, B group), and minerals such as iron, calcium, magnesium, and phosphorus. 🥣 Perfect for soups | 🍪 Suitable for sweet recipes With a delicate and slightly nutty flavor, amaranth can be used in many preparations: in Central America, it is often used for sweets, snacks, and amaranth popcorn, while in Europe it is preferred to pair it with vegetables, legumes, spices, and aromatic herbs. It is excellent as an alternative to couscous, seasoned with turmeric, ginger, cinnamon, or enriched with basil, marjoram, and mint.
