My favorite daughter-in-law was telling me about this whole grain Quinoa, which is gluten free. I have many food allergies and gluten is one of them. She told me this grain was in Big Lots. For a few weeks in our Big Lots, the grain was sold out. My husband and I found it yesterday and decided to give it a try.
The grain is quite grainy, round grains. I brought it to boil, 1 cup in 2 cups of water and let it simmer for 12 minutes. After 12 minutes I fluffed it with a fork and let it stand with a cover for 15 minutes.
The fork holding the grain is what it looks like after 15 minutes.
I am waiting for my husband to return from the flea market to try it for breakfast. Maybe with a little cinnamon it will taste fine. The aroma is different, too.
Have a wonderful day, folks.
