Arrowhead Mills, Organic Quinoa, 396 g
Arrowhead Mills brand was born in the Texas Panhandle back in 1960. We've grown, but we haven't changed how we do things. We're still using our same trusted milling process and building long-term relationships with our organic growers, working with them face-to-face, day-to-day. Hard work, honestly, kindness, and business with a handshake-that's our process. That's the Arrowhead way. It's how we bring the awesome goodness of the land to your table and we're real proud of it.
Quinoa was a staple of the ancient Incas and means "the mother grain". It's high in iron and has a distinctive flavor and fluffy texture. It makes a tasty choice for casseroles, pilafs and even salads when cooked.
Basic Quinoa
Rinse quinoa thoroughly either by using a strainer or by running fresh water over the quinoa in a pot and draining. Place quinoa and water in a 1 1/2 qt. saucepan and bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer until water is absorbed (10 to 15 min.). When done, grains will be translucent and the outer germ layer will separate. Use basic quinoa in any favorite rice or grain recipe.
Makes 3 cups.
