Quinoa Recipes

 

Quinoa is technically not a grain, it is a dried fruit from the Chenopodium herb family.  There are three main varieties of quinoa and the texture, color and flavor differ dramatically.  The higher the quality of quinoa seed, the more delicate the flavor.  Look for very light and tiny seeds.  The bigger, darker seeds have a bittersweet taste.

The shelf life of quinoa is approximately one month because the seed is rich in essential oils which makes it a prime target for spoilage.  You'll be able to keep quinoa longer if you store in the refrigerator.
