Amaranth Flour

HI all,

I'm new to this forum and I'm sorry if this topic has been brought up before.

I bought a package of Amaranth Flour and opened it up and it smelled like a musty moldy basement. I have bought other mixes from this same company and have had a after taste to the finished product that would have the same flavor. Is Amaranth flour known to have this smell?

Have a great day,

JJ

I do eat a mix grain cereal that has Amaranth. I've taken two bags back because of the funny odor.

I've eaten puffed amaranth cereal and it did not have this smell or taste. It sounds like it has gone bad.

I've bought a number of bags of amaranth flour and never noticed a bad smell.

Unfortunately, that is how Amaranth flour tastes and smells. Some people might not notice as much as others. It's kinda like the difference between rice pasta and corn pasta. You will have supporters on both sides depending on their taste buds. I just made a sugar cookie recipe that called for amaranth flour and they definitely had an aftertaste to them. After I added frosting they were bearable but just barely. I prefer rice, sorghum, tapioca, potato starch and corn flours. They are pretty neutral and don't have that aftertaste. Good Luck!!

      I think the best you will be able to do is to find out if gluten, or at least wheat, barley or rye is an intentional ingredient in a smoke product and only the manufacturer can answer that question. Since smokes are regulated by the AFT and not the FDA, allergens are not required to be declared in the labeling.

      yes i understand that pectin is gluten free ty.  i want to know if any cigars are gluten free its a simple question
    • trents
      Welcome to the forum, @brian weinstein! Gluten is a protein found in wheat barley and rye kernels. Pectin is a polysaccharide (a very complex sugar) found in the cell walls of fruits and vegetables. It is most commonly used as a thickening agent in food products, particularly jellies. So, pectin is naturally gluten free. That is not to the same as saying the cigar is gluten free.  Personally, I am reluctant to text you. I think most of us would feel the same way. Too many people already have access to our cell phone numbers.
