The Amaranth plant is known as one of the oldest foods on Earth and crops grown globally. It is true. Farmers in Mexico have been cultivating this beautiful, nutritious grain for centuries.

For amaranth to germinate, soil temperatures need to be 65-75 degrees Fahrenheit. Seeds can be sown directly in the garden or started indoors 6-8 weeks before the last frost. Seeds should be barely covered with soil and spaced 4-18 inches apart depending on the variety. Amaranth grows best in full sun and moist, well-drained soil, but tolerates poor soil and drought. The seeds are tiny, so a toothpick can be used to pick up 1-2 seeds at a time. Seedlings should be watered consistently and given plenty of light. A well-tended amaranth plant can reach a height of 5-8 feet.

Are you someone who is not into eating super greens? You can add supplements to your diet easily without eating steamed greens or salads. You can add Amaranth to stews, oatmeal, and the like. Be creative.

Create a unique side dish using the stems of an Amaranth plant. Chop and cook the stems and add your favorite spices. The tender greens are great for salads, and the branch is perfect for sautéd.

This vegetable is also called een/en Choy or Chinese spinach. Try the leaves stir-fried or lightly steamed.
