Callaloo, also known as amaranth or tete, is rich in vitamins and minerals, and considered a "superfood" among greens. It is cooked down into a delicious, savory stew that is central to cuisine across the Diaspora. In Yoruba, amaranth is called "tete" and is considered the first plant to grow on earth, and revered as the elder of all other plants. Callaloo is an extremely self-sufficient crop. Expect germination between 10-20 days, and fast growth after that. To get a head start on the season, sow seeds 2-4 weeks before the last frost lightly covered in pots or trays in a greenhouse or sunny window. Transplant 1-2' apart into the garden a couple weeks after the last frost, when the soil has warmed a bit. Callaloo will seed itself enough that you can harvest many young, tender plants whole at 12" as a way of thinning and allow some to mature with about 2' space in each direction. Mature plants have deep pink taproots that allow them to go long periods of time without watering, and shoot up thick, bushy branches.
