Quinoa

Details Information

White Quinoa grains are small, round, semi flattened, and cream color. Quinoa has an excellent source of protein that differentiates from other “proteic” grains due to the presence of the amino acid lysine, which makes the protein more complete. It has an excellent balance of nutrition. Besides a complete protein, it also contains the basic components for a healthy lifestyle without gluten and cholesterol.

Quinoa grain is used for human consumption in a variety of dishes such as soups, puddings, stews, bread, drinks, flour, etc. Also, in many regions of Peru, rice is replaced by Quinoa and mixed with poultry, meat and fish.
