Thank you so much for this video! I grew an Amaranth plant this year for the first time. Now I know how to prepare it. 😊

[@AwareHouseChef]

@@mikkiv9698 my pleasure! Thank you for reaching out!

Another great job George!

[@AwareHouseChef]

Thanks again! I appreciate you. All the best!

As mentioned at the end of the video: Fairly high in oxalates FYI. Not at bad as spinach and there is some calcium, which can help block absorption of oxalates. Still not at good as collards (which has more calcium and less oxalates). If you get kidney stones, be mindful.

Thanks for the tip about Google Scholar. I’m going to check out your video on purslane. it’s growing in my garden as well as the toxic spurge.

[@perettelear6603]

Thanks for the tip about Google Scholar. Never knew that.
Also, have you ever cooked with purslane? I have it growing in my garden and have heard it’s edible and nutritious. I also have the toxic spurge growing so I know the difference.
Thanks in advance.

@@perettelear6603 absolutely! It’s my pleasure. I did a whole video on purslane. I love it! It is part of that playlist at the end of the video as well! Cheers!

How about some recipes for sorrel ξινήθρα (xínithra). I just know the soup and mum would make pita or is that it or sorrel.

[@AwareHouseChef]

@@TheMatrix0022 thanks for the suggestion!
