As a gluten free flour, amaranth can be used in a wide
variety of different applications. It is particularly suitable for making
unleavened flatbreads like tortillas in Mexican cuisine or chapatis in Indian
cuisine.
Amaranth is one of the richest plant forms of protein
available. The protein is easily absorbed by the body and contains all amino
acids — even lysine, which is often missing from cereal grains. Studies have
shown that, in the plant kingdom, amaranth proteins are among the most similar
to animal proteins.
Amaranth is a fiber-rich grain which promotes digestive
health and ensures healthy bowel movement. Amaranth can be included in the diet
in the form of whole grains or in the form of amaranth flour.
