Pronounced keen-wah, this grain is a quick-cooking substitute for rice and couscous. It has a nutty flavor, fluffy texture, and good nutritional value with a near ideal protein balance and good source for fiber, essential amino acids, and many complex B vitamins. Red Quinoa stays firmer and crunchier than golden quinoa when cooked. It works well in salads, cereal, stuffings, and soups.
