Have you ever cooked with amaranth? It’s one of the oldest indigenous foods of the Americas! Archaeological evidence shows that amaranth was domesticated and cultivated in Mesoamerica over 6,000–8,000 years ago. It was a staple crop alongside corn (maize), beans, and squash. #indigena #indigenous #indigenousfood #aztecfood #mesoamérica #educational #indigenousfoodsovereignty #indigenousfoodwarriors #amaranth #nativeamerican #huautli
