Amaranth

Green leaf for soups, sautés and stews. We clean it, dry it and seal it in a 650g pack.

What is amaranth

Amaranth is a staple in many traditional African dishes.

Often sold as green leaf, amaranth has a bright green colour and a tender texture. It cooks quickly and works in soups, sautés and stews. Ours comes cleaned and dried, ready for the pot.
