YUM! October 1, 2009 Maureen Jeanson (Seacoast, NH United States) Ok Quinoa is all the rage right now in the clean eating movement and this is a great one to try! I even forgot to rinse it a few times prior to cooking it and the saponins did not ruin the flavor at all. Excellent product taste, excellent for your body as well!
We have made Quinoa cakes, quinoa with caramelized onions, quinoa muffins--this is a great food choice!
Not the best quinoa option September 11, 2009 G. Schwab (Philadelphia, PA USA) 4 out of 4 found this review helpful
I have tried several brands of quinoa and this is my least favorite because of the bitter taste. The other brands (Bob's Red Mill, Nature's Harvest, NOW) are pre-rinsed, which helps remove the bitterness. Have you ever tried rinsing quinoa? The unboiled grains are tiny and slip through all but the tightest knit colander or sieve. Even after rinsing, there was still a bitter taste. The price is more competitive, but the taste leaves much to be desired.
Different and good July 31, 2009 K. Kyle (Birmingham, AL) Cooks up easily. Very tasty cooked in chicken stock. I did rinse and soak overnight in an acid medium (sprouts quickly by the way). Not so very different from rice or pasta in taste to us.
I ordered when the cost was just a couple dollars a bag, which was a good value. $89.99? NEVER!
great deal! April 29, 2009 M. J. Coffman (Keyser WV USA) 1 out of 2 found this review helpful
I shopped around for a good price on quinoa and this was the best i found. Quality and shipping were no problem.
Great rice alternative - and healthier! April 23, 2009 Erica Enfinger 4 out of 4 found this review helpful
This is fine with just water if you want to put something over it. However, if you want an easy, tasty, healthy side, try tossing around with a little butter and garlic then cook with veggie or chicken broth.
And remember - rinse, rinse, rinse beforehand and stir a few times while cooking.
This has a lot of nutrients, so worth a try and some experimentation.
