Although it looks like a cereal, quinoa does not belong to the grass family but is the seed of a plant similar to spinach. Tricolor quinoa from organic cultivation by the company Oltresole is a mix of white, red and black quinoa seeds. White quinoa has a neutral flavor while the red or black varieties are characterized by a stronger and more intense flavor, giving this mix the right balance of taste and energy. Naturally gluten-free quinoa is suitable for those intolerant to it or for those who follow vegan or vegetarian diets. This food is rich in various nutrients useful for the well-being of the body: fibers, mineral salts (magnesium, potassium and iron), omega 3 and 6 fatty acids. Before cooking, gluten-free quinoa must always be rinsed under running water and then cooked for 10-12 minutes, then toast the grains to make it.
