👨🍳 Instructions
- Rinse the amaranth seeds thoroughly under cold running water using a fine-mesh sieve. This helps remove saponins and any dust.
- Combine the rinsed amaranth and water (or milk) in a small saucepan. Add a pinch of salt if desired.
- Bring the mixture to a boil over medium-high heat, then reduce the heat to low, cover, and simmer for 20-25 minutes.
- Once the liquid is absorbed and the amaranth is tender, remove from heat and let it rest, covered, for 5 minutes. Fluff with a fork before serving.
