Glossary
Quinoa
Quinoa, a species of goosefoot (Chenopodium), is a grain-like crop grown primarily for its edible seeds. These seeds have fluffy, creamy, slightly crunchy texture and somewhat nutty flavor when cooked. It is a pseudocereal rather than a true cereal, or grain, as it is not a grass.
Unlike wheat or rice (which are low in lysine), quinoa contains a balanced set of essential amino acids for humans, making it an unusually complete protein source. It is a good source of dietary fiber and phosphorus and is high in magnesium and iron. Quinoa is gluten-free and considered easy to digest.
