I have just joined and in the menu planner have come across a couple of foods that I do not know – I live in South Africa and not familiar with these:
Amaranth and Edamame??? What are these – can anyone let me know
Thanks
JennyuHi, Jenny, and welcome. Edamame is green (immature) soybean that looks like peas in the pod on the outside, lima beans inside, but is much tastier; it is generally steamed, and is very high in protein. It is available here http://www.makingthedifference.co.za/store/fragments/product-details/product-details-index.jsp?productId=6008000051545
Amaranth is a gluten-free grain, fairly high in protein, that makes a great porridge. You can also eat the leaves steamed like spinach.
