Gelatinized Yellow Maca Root Chips, Certified Organic, Fair Trade, GMO-Free, Vegan and Raw 1 lb (454g)

Overviewgelatinized yellow whole maca root chips

Our gelatinized yellow whole maca root chips are carefully and consciously grown, processed and handled. They come from an organic farming cooperative in and around Junin, Peru. We work only with producers who own and manage their lands at a local grass roots level. The cooperative of farmers is committed both to organic farming and to producing only the highest quality Maca products. Gelatinized yellow maca chips are made from yellow maca roots, which make up about 60% off the annual harvest in Peru. These roots are pre-cooked to remove starch content and ease digestion. This superfood helps with fertility, hormone levels, energy building, mental focus, and more.

What Exactly Are Whole Yellow Maca Root Chips?

Our yellow maca root chips are the closest to whole maca roots that can legally be exported from Peru. That’s because maca is considered a “heritage product” of Peru and the Peruvian government does not allow whole roots to be exported to avoid them being planted in other countries. Yellow maca root chips are simply maca roots that have been cut into small chunks after being washed and dried. Our chips are pre-cooked (gelatinized) to ease digestion and to make them simpler to consume. Traditionally, dried maca roots are boiled with water or milk and sugar to make a hearty porridge called “mazamorra.” You can prepare maca chips the same way or experiment with other ways of making them.

How Are Maca Chips Different From Maca Powders?

While it’s true that yellow maca powder and yellow maca chips both come from the same yellow maca roots, there are a few differences between the two.

  1. The powder is easier to use than the chips because it mixes more readily into a smoothie or other recipe. Maca chips, on the other hand, need to be soaked, steeped or cooked in order to be consumed.
  2. Maca chips generally preserve slightly more nutrients as less of the maca is exposed to oxidation, but maca powder has more surface are to pass those nutrients on in the digestive system.
  3. Maca chips make for a heartier and more satisfying meal when added to a porridge or oatmeal dish.

How Do You Use Yellow Maca Chips?

Preparation ideas for whole yellow maca root chips

  • Simmer ½ cup of yellow maca chips for about an hour and add to oatmeal or other warm breakfast cereal.
  • Simmer ½ cup of maca chips for about an hour and add them to a smoothie.
  • Steep maca chips in hot water for 10 minutes to make a tea – add sweetener as desired.

Try the traditional mazamorra recipe – this makes for a hearty meal!Traditional Mazamorra De Maca Recipe

Ingredients:

    • 1 cup (130g) yellow maca chips
    • 1 cup (130g) flour
    • ¼ cup (32g) sugar
    • 2 cups (250ml) milk
    • Clove, cinnamon and/or anis to taste
    • 4 cups (500 ml) water

Preparation: Simmer the maca chips in water along with spices until soft (about 1 hour), adding water if necessary. Add flour, sugar and milk and simmer for an additional 15-20 minutes. Allow to cool and enjoy. Mazamorra may be kept in the refrigerator for 1-2 days.

What Are The Benefits Of Adding Yellow Maca Chips To Your Life?

Our gelatinized yellow maca root chips are great for anyone with a sensitive stomach since the starch content has been removed. About 5% of people have minor stomach irritability, gas or bloating when using raw maca products. Gelatinized maca does not produce this effect at all. Gelatinized maca undergoes a process of high heat and pressure to remove the starch content from the powdered root. This makes the final product easier to digest.

Please note that results may vary from person to person.

Storage/Shelf Life: Maca keeps well for up to 24 months provided that it is stored in a sealed bag out of direct sunlight and at below 70% humidity. (More storage and use tips)

Suggested Use: 1-3 teaspoons mixed in water, juice or smoothies daily. (Complete serving guidelines).

We also sell gelatinized yellow maca root capsules and gelatinized yellow maca root powder.

I can tell the difference from my usual store-bought brands

Loving the red maca from themacateam. I can tell the difference from my usual store-bought brands. It really tastes so fresh and sweet compared to others. I really love this product. Thanks for sourcing it for us to enjoy

By Michelle Gebbia

The Maca tastes fresh and flavorful, the Kilo bag is a great price

I LOVE Maca Team Maca...this was my first purchase with the Maca Team and I have no need to try any other Maca-producer. The Maca tastes fresh and flavorful, the Kilo bag is a great price, and I feel so much more at ease (Maca is such powerful medicine :) )

The Maca Team is a small business run by a family who cares

I take 24 products from five to six times a week to increase my well-being and sensual and sexual delights. ;D The Maca Team’s organic maca is one of them—nine grams in my smoothie, Monday to Saturday. The Maca Team is a small business run by a family who cares about its customers, its Peruvian maca growers, and the environment. It's vital to know the source of everything we put in our mouths. Physical and mental health are precious treasures. :D

Your maca is sent from God, is a blessing and is superb

By Milt Thompson

This product is amazing!

This product is amazing! I have used other cheaper brands of white maca with fairly good results, but after trying the Maca Team maca, I noticed within two weeks all of my menopausal symptoms had completely vanished. Others described a bad taste and smell, but I have tried the black and the red and find them both to be mild tasting. I use a tablespoon in my daily smoothly

By Joy

Their maca varieties are good, as is their customer service.

Maca first came to us by our vitamin supplier. Then we ordered from the Maca Team. Comparison? Think fire-fly, then think mid-day sun. At 76 and 73 years respectively, that is a big deal; and at comparable cost too. We never have we had such speedy delivery and the packaging is the strongest, most protective we've seen, ever, at all ... anywhere. Further, the Mrs. no longer takes hormone supplements. And Mr. scans the morning want ads for steady P/T work.

The difference in freshness is night and day, and better tasting

I had been using another brand of maca powder and decided to try The Maca Team's. The difference in freshness is night and day, and better tasting .  I'm 6 foot 250 lbs. and take 4 teaspoons every day w/ my protein shake. Great energy boost and just feel great all day. I can tell a difference when I do not take it. best price that I have found {36oz}. I will be buying more as needed.

The Maca Team brand is very special.

I've tried various maca brands over the last 20 years and The Maca Team brand is very special. There is definitely a difference when it comes to the quality and colors of the maca. This red maca does seem to nourish certain parts of my body while the black maca nourishes something else. I know I've been missing the nutrition these maca provide. I'm 75 years old and bodies wear out, but I'm finding I'm regaining a functioning body. How wonderful is this?!?!!!

I just wanted to thank you for your excellently constructed website. I am a physician

I just wanted to thank you for your excellently constructed website. I am a physician and I recently started learning about Maca. I get a very good sense of it, and I expect I will try it out myself and possibly be recommending it to patients in the future. If so, your website will be the first place to send people. Thanks again.

I feel like I’m dealing with friends, not some company far away

Love the Maca team, In an earlier comment I said I was on the fence about where to buy Maca .Not anymore .You shouldn’t be either. The team has answered any questions I’ve had promptly.  I feel like I’m dealing with friends, not some company far away out for my money only. The Maca is fresh, prices are good, the people are nice.  If you’re on the fence, don’t be, you won’t be sorry.

We love this product. I own a store and work with clients holistically. We have recommended maca for years however, this is the highest quality product we have ever carried. I am proud to offer it in my store.

By Mellissa Gage, Infinity and Beyond

Thank you The Maca Team!!!!

I am really happy that I chose the Maca Team, today you can find many distributors selling Maca powder, however quality of the powder is impossible to compare. Moreover, the results after 2 weeks I could feel. Before I was taking maca powder and I did not feel any changes. But since I started taking Maca from Maca Team the changes are incredible. So, I did a test.:) I gave the powder to my partner ... and after 2 weeks he was impressed and told me that he has more energy, feeling happy... Thank you The Maca Team!!!!

By Olga
