Straight up goodness. An important crop for the Incan Empire back in the day, quinoa has a unique nutrition profile that's led to its modern-day 'superfood' status. It's packed with nourishing plant-based goodness, including quality protein and dietary fibre. Great for those avoiding wheat, our Red Quinoa is easy to prepare and super versatile - simply use like any other grain.
TO COOK: Rinse under running water. In a pot, put in a cup of quinoa with two cups of water or stock (for added flavour), cover and bring to the boil. Reduce heat to simmer until all liquid is absorbed, about 15-20 minutes.
