Quinoa Red (Organic, Gluten Free, Bulk) - 25kg

Ceres Organic Quinoa is the perfect rice substitute. It is cooked in a similar manner as rice, and has light, fluffy, and slightly crunchy texture paired with a slightly nutty flavour that can help enhance your dishes. Dry quinoa can also be the perfect addition to your soups, stews, cereals, or any other meal you want to bulk up with an extra dose of nutrition.

Red quinoa (which takes on a brownish hue when cooked) has a richer taste, slightly chewier texture, and somewhat nuttier flavour compared to white quinoa. It’s often the quinoa of choice for cold salads as it holds its shape better during cooking.

Ingredients: Certified Organic Red Quinoa

Origin: Packed in New Zealand from imported ingredients (Peru)

Certification: BioGro Organic

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.
Cooked quinoa is similar in flavour, texture and consistency to both rice and couscous, but it is much more nutritious. Try substituting this superfood for rice or couscous in all sorts of recipes–stir fry, soup, casseroles and more.

How Interesting...

Quinoa is considered a complete protein because it contains all 9 essential amino acids. A one-cup serving of cooked organic quinoa contains 12-18% Daily Value (DV) for protein, which is more than any grain. In particular, quinoa contains lysine, an amino acid that most grains lack. Lysine helps the body absorb calcium and reduces stress-induced anxiety.
