History lesson for your palate: have you always wanted to dine like the Incas and Aztecs? - Here we go! We set off on an adventurous journey through the deepest jungles, Indiana Jones-style, to get the crunchy gold of the indigenous peoples for you. Admittedly, it was perhaps not quite that wild. However, we get the valuable Inca grain from South America, among other places, where the miracle grain is native. So what are you waiting for? Order 700 g of puffed organic amaranth now and spice up your pantry.

Puffed amaranth – what is that?

You may have read in our shop what amaranth is. But what is the difference between "regular" and puffed amaranth? The millet-like amaranth grains can be cooked but also puffed. Puffing amaranth gives it an airy-light texture and a finely roasted nutty note, making it a great porridge and muesli topping. Puffed amaranth is also a highlight in your vegetable pots and fresh salads. And since we are on the topic of crunchiness, have you heard of quinoa, amaranth's corny amigo? Also known as "Incan popcorn", quinoa is at least equally as powerful as amaranth! Bring millennia old indigenous tradition into your kitchen!
