Amaranth as a side


Amaranth

Ingredients:

    1 cup amaranth

    2 1/2 cups cold water


Cooking Directions:

Stove top:   Combine amaranth & cold water in a 1-quart saucepan.  Bring to a boil, stirring to wet the grains.  Reduce heat & simmer, uncovered for 20-25 minutes, stirring occasionally, particularly toward the end to keep it from sticking to the pan.


If you have a rice cooker/steamer, simply put in equal parts amaranth & water.  You may have to fine-tune the amounts for your cooker, since they vary.
