Does maca powder require cooking?

Maca does not require cooking and be consumed raw. However it makes a great addition to soups and broths, sometimes I even use it as a substitute for flour. Sarah

No.it isn't that specific. ..it lists it's latin name, Lepidium meyenii, as the ingredient if that's any help. Also, the powder is off-white. Until this question I wasn't even aware of different macas. Does it make a difference regarding benefits? I'd like to know.

i am not sure how much powder equals 500mg, but i went to bing.com and researched the side effects of maca powder and found several warnings. i did this because after adding about a tablespoon to my daily smoothie, i found unpleasant mood shifts, causing me to get upset and angry quickly. i stopped taking it and the mood swings stopped. i threw the rest out. i suggest getting the asai powder (much cheaper than the frozen packs) the maqui powder, flax powder and hemp powder, all available organically.

It's not necessary. What you want to season is the cooking surface. Here's a good thread with more info: http://chowhound.chow.com/topics/878128

No .... Whenever it says RAW it is not gelatinized. This one is raw. You have to type in gelatinized maca powder.

I would say yes to Soups, but I can't imagine using it for Macaroni. Even with soups you would want to be sure to wash it thoroughly so no grease was left on the sides to change the flavor of future water usage.I love this Hot Pot but only use it for boiling water.

strong rooty sort of like with soil taste - that's maca white/yellow/creme gets better with red and black - I just capsule it this days but you get used to it after a few days, if you mixing with liquids, make sure to drinks tons of that drink or water to push down the tasty rooty soily taste lol ..keep in cool dry place to keep fresh

The package only says "organic maca root powder". You might consider contacting the nutribullet folks directly for more info.

The package says a serving size is 1 tsp (5g). Since the only ingredient listed is maca, I'm assuming the answer is 5g. Hope that helps!

Yes some if I remember correctly; but very minor to the product and overall are not a problem to cook with into sauces and eat. I often heat, mix with brown rice pasta, a little pepper and tada... good dinner.

I don't now about recipes other than Google it but I made a bunch of Mac and cheese with it because we had so much pasta in our cupboard to use up. I just used it as you would on the directions to making Kraft Mac and cheese. (Boil your pasta and set aside after draining then make your sauce which consists of butter or margarine, milk and the Cheddar Cheese Powder) It came out great!!!

It doesn't require any seasoning. You can cook on it right out of the box. According to the instructions, you generally shouldn't scrub it all that much. If anything sticks, my experience has been that a little hot water will take it right off. A seasoning layer will build up on it, and thats totally normal and doesnt need to be removed.

not really cooking. you just heat up water and disolve the concentrate in the large can. save the packet under the lid to sprinkle in later. just follow the instructions and you will have no problems.
