Red Amaranth Microgreens

Elevate your dishes with the vibrant beauty of Red Amaranth. Featuring deep magenta stems and reddish-pink leaves, this microgreen adds instant visual impact and elegance to any plate—perfect for garnishes, raw dishes, and fresh salads. Its mild, earthy flavour and soft, delicate texture make it a favourite among chefs and home cooks alike. Whether you’re crafting a gourmet entrée or a simple salad, Red Amaranth brings both refined taste and striking presentation to the table.

Each punnet contains approximately 30 to 40 grams of freshly harvested produce, depending on the plant. That’s enough for 3–4 servings as a garnish or topping, or 1–2 servings when used as a salad base. For even more depth of flavour, try combining it with our other microgreens.  This product is sold as a living punnet, with the microgreens still growing in their coir growth medium and roots intact. This natural setup keeps your greens fresher for longer and allows you to harvest them right when you’re ready to eat. Simply store the punnet in your fridge like any other fresh produce. Because the crop is still growing, the weight of the greens alone can vary—our 30–40 gram estimate is an approximation based on average growth at harvest stage.
