Amaranth

Amaranth is also called Chinese Spinach, Yin Choi and Kiwicha. The advantage of Amaranth is that it contains no gluten and very well can be used as a substitute for grains. This is a very big advantage for people who can't or don't want to eat gluten. The Amaranth leaf can be used as a substitute for spinach. The seed can be used in its entirety or ground into flour.
