    Thank you for the great info!
    A request, please think about turning off the background music while you are talking. I am partially deaf and it's very hard to hear your words over the music. Thank you for understanding.

    Great video & i love the music. Please dont remove it. I do see other's comments so i guess when you find the right volume level it'll mesh better....but the song just creates a happy & fun vibe & i want to dance lol Have a great day! 🥰🙏🏽💃

      Thanks so much Dee for watching and not being put off by the music! I very much appreciate your supportive comments. Yes, I agree that I need to figure out the right volume. There's a lot that goes into making the videos engaging and fun. For a little bit there I was discouraged, your comment brightened my day. Sending you lots of lots of love, health and happiness. Thank you again, it meant a lot to me that you wrote.

      Thanks for watching and commenting! Yes I'm upfront with that and share who I learn from to encourage folks to try something new. I try to practice what I preach and not let perfection get in the way of good.

    That looks like a very convenient option to make whole grain bread. Instead of grinding it you can just cook it down till you get a dough like consistency.

    I just made it the first time by soaking it in plain water overnight. I was going to drain and rinse the next day, but since I didn’t have cheese cloth, I just cooked it in the soaking water for 20 min. It cooked down into a cream of wheat like texture. I ate it with fresh butter I made from cream and it was delicious. Is it better to drain the soaking water, or do you loose nutrients?

    I cook it the 2nd way. It's great as a breakfast bowl or dessert bowl with vanilla or honey yogurt and almond butter or peanut butter and fruit or granola on top.❤

    Good video. Would you really use 1 cup per portion? I don't know if it's just me i'm 32 year old male 5 12 in height and 1/2 a cup seems like quite a big portion but maybe i'm not eating enough. Just weighed out 100g seemed like quite alot.

    • @kalahealthandwellness
      @kalahealthandwellness  8 місяців тому

      Thanks for watching and trying it out 🙂Are you talking about half a cup cooked OR half a cup of uncooked then cooked? These little grains do expand after cooking. Amaranth is quite filling.

    • @guitarnotator
      @guitarnotator 8 місяців тому

      1 un cooked cup? but I just realized your cup sizes are different to ours. I'm in the UK 1 uncooked cup is 125g here, but that is still to much for me. I'm not good with cup measures so i'm just going to stick to 50g portion soak over night then cook 1 1/2 x the weight of water.@@kalahealthandwellness

      Thanks for watching! You could definitely season as you like. Amaranth can be prepared sweet or savory. I wanted to taste it plain to get to know the grain.
