Quinoa Referred to as the “mother of all grains”, quinoa (pronounced ‘KEENwah’) was an important crop for the Inca Empire. It’s quite new to the western world but has been eaten for thousands of years in South America. Quinoa wears two hats. Although prepared and eaten as a grain, quinoa is actually a flowering plant grown primarily for its edible seeds. The quinoa seed is a complete protein, meaning it contains all 9 essential amino acids necessary for good health. Yes, quinoa counts as both a whole grain and a plant-based protein. Did I forget to mention that quinoa can be found in sprouted form? That’s important because when a grain or seed is sprouted, the vitamins and minerals become better absorbed by the body. They are also easier to digest and break down for those with diabetes. More good news about quinoa—it is naturally gluten-free and can therefore be enjoyed safely by those with celiac disease or gluten intolerance. Celiac disease is an autoimmune disease where the ingestion of gluten leads to damage in the small intestine. Gluten is a protein found in wheat, rye, and barley that acts as a glue to hold food together. It’s responsible for the soft, chewy texture of bread. The many forms of quinoa: Quinoa comes in four forms: white, red, black, and tricolor. White quinoa has a light and fluffy texture with a mild flavor. It offers the most versatility and can be used as a rice replacement, hot cereal, base for salads, and even stirred into baked goods! Red and black quinoa are very similar, both have a crunchy texture and nuttier flavor compared to white quinoa. Although they don’t work well in sweet applications, red and black quinoa are wonderful in grain bowls, salads, and as a stand-in for rice. You will also find quinoa in tricolor form—a lovely combination of white, red, and black quinoa. Food Facts Health benefits of quinoa Quinoa contains plant antioxidants called flavonoids, which may have anti-inflammatory, anti-viral, anti-cancer and anti-depressant effects. Sprouted quinoa has even higher levels of antioxidants, so you’ll want to choose it when possible. How to Cook Quinoa Use 1 3/4 cups water for every cup of quinoa. Any more water, and the quinoa gets mushy. Any less, and it’s too dry. Once you’ve measured both, follow these easy steps: Combine the quinoa and water in a medium pot. Bring to a boil, cover, and reduce the heat. Simmer for 15 minutes. Remove the pot from the heat and let it sit, covered, for 10 minutes more. Then, remove the lid and fluff with a fork!
