In the United States, forms of amaranth are more familiar in flamboyant decorative plantings— where their brilliant multicolored leaves and magenta chenille tassels create dramatic displays—than they are in stewpots. Amaranth seeds show up in the natural food larder—puffed into breakfast cereal, baked in bread, or cooked as a grain.
