Amaranth (Rajgira Seed)
Amaranth, also known as "kiwicha," is a tiny, round, off-white grain-like seed, packs higher

corn-like aroma with a nutty or peppery mild flavor. Texture ranges from crunchy to
slightly sticky, depend on how is prepared.
Try popped amaranth for a unique breakfast cereal or can also be cooked as porridge or
added to soups and stews. Amaranth can be sprouted for easier digestion.
