White Quinoa

White Quinoa is a light, fluffy whole grain with a mild, nutty flavour. It is quick to cook and is a nutritious alternative to rice, pasta, and couscous in a variety of meals.

Store dry white quinoa in an airtight container in a cool, dry place away from heat, moisture, and direct sunlight. Once cooked, refrigerate in a sealed container and consume within 3–5 days.

• ¼ cup (45 g) dry white quinoa per person as a side dish.

• Cook with ½ cup (120 ml) of water or stock per ¼ cup of quinoa (a 2:1 liquid-to-quinoa ratio).

• Simmer for 15–20 minutes, then let stand for 5 minutes before fluffing with a fork.
