Other details:

• It was an aztec staple: Amaranth was a key part of the diets of the pre-columbian aztec, and it was used not just for food but also as part of their religious ceremonies.
• It’s actually a seed: Like quinoa, amaranth is not technically a grain but is the seed of the amaranth plant. One plant can produce up to 60,000 seeds.

• Amaranth is gluten-free: Amaranth doesn’t contain any gluten, which makes it a great choice for people who are celiac or gluten intolerant and an excellent way to boost the nutritional power of gluten-free recipes.

• It contains lysine: Most grains like wheat are short on lysine, an amino acid, but that’s not the case for amaranth. This makes amaranth a complete protein because it contains all the essential amino acids.

• Amaranth contains protein: Amaranth’s protein content is about 13 percent, or 26 grams per cup, which is much higher than for most other grains. To compare, a cup of long-grain white rice has just 13 grams of protein.

• The plant is hardy: Amaranth prefers a high elevation but can grow at almost any elevation in temperate climates if it has moist, loose soil with good drainage. It can also survive in low-water conditions once the plants have been established.

• You can eat other parts of the plant: Amaranth seeds may be the best-known part of the plant, which has more than 60 different species, but the leaves are also edible.
