Description
Celosia is a genus of edible and ornamental plants in the amaranth family, Amaranthaceae. The word is derived from the Ancient Greek word for "burning," describing the flame-like flower heads. Species include the names woolflowers, or cockscombs. Is cultivated as a nutritious leafy green vegetable, and as a grain, Cockscomb is a pseudo-cereal, not a true cereal. These leaves, young stems and young inflorescences are used for stew; the leaves also have a soft texture and a mild spinach-like taste. With the right condiments they can be eaten as a side-dish. – abstracted from Wikipedia.
