About the
Product
Quinoa is a species of
the goosefoot genus (Chenopodium quinoa), a grain crop grown primarily for
its edible seeds. It is a pseudocereal, similar in some respects to buckwheat,
rather than a true cereal, as it is not a member of the true grass family. As
a chenopod, quinoa is closely related to species such as beetroots, spinach
and tumbleweeds. As a member of the Amaranthaceae family, it is related to
and resembles amaranth, which is also a pseudocereal. After harvest, the
seeds must be processed to remove the coating containing the bitter tasting
saponins.
It is 100% natural and vegan.
It has a mild and slightly nutty flavor. It has a fluffy texture that is
somewhat chewy. It also tastes similar to brown rice but has a nuttier earthy
flavor.
