Amaranth flour is produced from its main source, the amaranth plant. The seeds of the plant are grounded down, which turns it into flour. It can be used for baking or mixed with other flours. The Amaranth plant seed that is used to make Amaranth flour comes in different colours such as pink, white, gold, and tan, but it depends on the species. You can use Amaranth flour for baking to give your dishes a sweet and delicious taste.
The major producer of amaranth was the Aztec empire, which was powerful in central Mexico in the 15th and 16th centuries AD. After beans and maize, amaranth was the 3rd major crop produced in the Empire. It was named after a Greek word that means “everlasting” or “immortal.” It shows the sturdiness and versatility of this seed.
People consider amaranth a cereal, like wheat and oats, but it is not. Even though it has similar applications and nutrients as the cereals, it is utterly different from cereal grains.
The Aztecs use amaranth to make tortillas, atole, and tamales. When Huitzilopochtli, their sacred month, starts, they use agave, maize, and amaranth to create the idols of their gods. To make your favourite baking dishes such as quick bread, flatbreads, pancakes, crackers, and pizza dough, amaranth flour is going to be the perfect addition to your kitchen’s little bakery.
