Spicy Pantry Amaranth Seeds: 4 oz to 5 lb for Porridge, Popping and Baking

About this product

Start with how you cook. These amaranth seeds simmer in about 15-20 minutes, which suits weeknight meals. Use them in creamy porridge, pop them like popcorn, or sprinkle them into baked goods. They also work in many places where you would use rice or quinoa, so one bag can cover a few different meals.

Flavor is mild: gentle sweetness, some earthiness, and a pleasant chew when simmered or baked into bread. That makes them easy to pair with sweet or savory additions. Buyer tip: the 4 oz size suits a first try. The 12 oz, 2 lb and 5 lb sizes suit cooks who make these seeds a regular pantry item or cook in batches. All sizes are Non-GMO and come in a resealable stand-up kraft pouch.

How to use and store

• Porridge: simmer the seeds until creamy. Plan on roughly 15-20 minutes, then add your usual sweet or savory toppings.
• Rice or quinoa swap: use them in bowls, sides or batch-prep meals where you would normally cook rice or quinoa.
• Popping and baking: pop the seeds like popcorn for a crunchy topping or snack, or sprinkle them into breads and other baking for a nutty crunch.
