Summary: Quinoa
Comment: Until last u\year I had never heard of Quinoa. Now I am hooked. I love the taste. Although I'm really not that keen on the red. But the white (or gold) will be found in my pantry from now on. Just cook it like you would rice, but keep a watch on it as it will stick. Most recipes say it cooks in 10 min. but I cook mine covered about 20 at a simmer in salted water with a little olive oil in the water.. Also you can use stock instead of water. I even threw some raw chicken in a pot with Quinoa (added some celery, onions and some spices) it was great. I make a double batch and keep the leftovers in the fridge. Good for breakfast w/milk , as a side dish or just a snack. Excellent for diabetics (like myself).QUINOA, 10 lb Bag

Summary: Great product, great price.
Comment: I have almost finished my 1st 10lb bag, and am getting ready to buy at least one more. You just can't beat the value - what a great hedge against rising food prices! I'm not sure the description mentions it, but this is red quinoa. It has a slightly stronger flavor than the golden quinoa I have purchased in grocery stores, but rinsing it in a wire-mesh strainer before cooking removes any bitterness.

Summary: Speed and quality
Comment: Because my local WholeFoods and other stores had run out of quinoa, I looked into buying it online. And even with shipping costs, this turned out to be a good decision, as in the US Northeast, quinoa costs skyrocketed around August 2008, from $2/pound to $4 and up.

This is a bulk bag of quinoa from Angelina's Gourmet, shipped quickly in a box, and is in all respects just like what you'd buy in the bulk section of your local health food store. Excellent value both financially and nutritionally.
