Nutritional Facts

• Vitamin K: Contains a massive amount, which is critical for bone density and heart health.
• Vitamin C: High levels that act as a powerful antioxidant to boost immunity.
• Antioxidants: Rich in Betalains (the same pigments found in beets), which have potent anti-inflammatory and detoxifying properties.

Culinary Tips

• The “Zero Heat” Rule: Red Amaranth is the most delicate of the microgreens mentioned so far. It will wilt instantly if exposed to heat. Always add it to a dish after it has been plated.
• Avoid Heavy Dressings: Because the leaves are so thin, heavy oil-based dressings will weigh them down and make them look “muddy.” Use a light spritz of lemon or a very thin balsamic glaze.

Storage Tip: To keep your Microgreens at peak freshness, store them in your refrigerator’s crisper drawer. Keep them dry and in an airtight container; only wash them immediately before you are ready to eat!
