Allright Quinoa - Red

Red quinoa has a richer taste, slightly chewier and heartier texture, and somewhat nuttier flavor compared to white quinoa. It’s often the quinoa of choice for cold salads as it holds its shape better during cooking.

Quinoa is a good source of antioxidants and minerals, providing more magnesium, iron, fibre, and zinc than many common grains. Quinoa may reduce blood cholesterol, blood sugar, and triglycerides. It’s weight loss friendly, gluten-free, and has been shown to increase the nutrient and antioxidant value of gluten-free diets.

Quinoa has a crunchy texture and nutty flavour. It’s also gluten-free and can thus be enjoyed by people who are sensitive to gluten or wheat.

It’s usually boiled and added to salads, used to thicken soups, or eaten as a side dish or breakfast porridge.
