100% Organic Amaranth

This 100% Organic Amaranth is a tiny, fast-cooking gluten-free grain that does not require soaking. 

Amaranth is a superfood that contains more essential amino acids than any other plant source and has been shown in laboratory tests to produce cholesterol. It is a low-fat, low-sodium, high-fiber food that's also rich in vitamins (particularly Vitamin B), as well as iron and calcium.
