Quinoa grain is considered a superfood because of its numerous nutritional properties.
It is an easily digestible food and can be germinated in a short time. Its flavor is quite reminiscent of brown rice, although its texture is much finer, similar to couscous.
Its long shelf life is due to the presence of a saponin that protects the grain from attack by parasites or insects, which only disappears when washed with plenty of water
How to use:
Cooking the grain: same as rice, ie two measures of water for one measure of quinoa (Do not forget to wash it well with water before boiling
