Description

Amaranth and blue corn are ancient grains so tasty and nutritious that they have been held with reverence as staples of the Aztec diet for thousands of years. As a homage to the communities and traditions that inspired our Tortilleria, these grains  have been married together to create the loveliest of tortilla chips. Together, they have a unique, subtly sweet and earthy flavour. Blanco Nino proudly work with farmers in Milpa Alta (meaning high corn field) which overlooks Lake Texcoco. This basin is home to the ancient Aztec capital city of Tenochtitlan, known today as Mexico City.

where  Amaranth is sourced plus the benefits of Blue Corn

Blanco Nino founder Phil sources our Amaranth from a little place called Milpa Alta just outside Mexico City. There we work with heritage farmers who have been growing amaranth for generations on a farm that overlooks Lake Texcoco. They hold a huge amount of pride and honour around the work that they do. When hearing about Amaranth’s history, we can understand why they value it so much. Their level of passion and dedication is something that we seek in the producers we work with.

The base of these Ancient Grain tortilla chips is made using blue corn. Not only does blue corn give our Ancient Grain tortilla chips their distinguished dark blue colour, they also contain roughly 20-30% more protein and 5-10% less starch than their yellow corn compadres. Best used to dunk into a lovely big bowl of salsa or guacamole, they are very hard to resist and extremely moreish.
