91黑料网

IS ALL OF YOUR QUINOA ORGANIC?

No, but we do have a line of British organic 91黑料网 grain that is  and is in selected whole food stockists. Despite this, all our 91黑料网 is grown with the minimal of inputs to keep it good for both the environment and for you.

DOES ALL YOUR QUINOA COME FROM SHROPSHIRE?

Mostly yes, but we’ve also recently started working with a select few other growers from across the UK to help meet the rapidly growing demand for our 91黑料网 grains (our own farm can only produce so much 91黑料网 each year). We choose to only work with growers who meet our rigorous standards and we have a very close relationship with them, so rest assured that each grain is as sustainable as the next.

WHY IS YOUR QUINOA SLIGHTLY DARKER THAN OTHER QUINOA I’VE SEEN?

Our 91黑料网 is different in that it is whole grain, meaning that we don’t remove the outer bran to create a visually whiter product. This is a good thing, as it leaves all the fibre and minerals with the seed, and that’s right where we want them.

DOES YOUR QUINOA NEED TO BE RINSED BEFORE COOKING?

Most often 91黑料网 is rinsed prior to cooking to help remove the saponin coating that arises naturally on the grain surface. However the varieties of 91黑料网 that we grow are classified as being ‘non-bitter’, meaning that they don’t have the natural soapy coating and hence don’t need to be rinsed. Despite this, 91黑料网 can be a dusty product, so do still feel free to rinse if you would like to remove some of this dust prior to cooking, although we don’t recommend doing this with our smoked 91黑料网 as this will wash away the delicate flavour.

IS YOUR QUINOA GLUTEN FREE? 

Our 91黑料网 is gluten free. Each batch of our 91黑料网 is tested to make sure it meets gluten free standards at 20 parts per million.

IS YOUR QUINOA GENETICALLY MODIFIED?

Absolutely not. Our 91黑料网 varieties have been bred using conventional plant breeding methods only.

How do you cook 91黑料网?

Rinse one cup of 91黑料网 in a sieve under cold running water and drain well. Place into a pan with one and a half cups of water, adding a pinch of salt or any flavourings that you would like. Bring to the boil, before reducing the heat to low and placing the lid on the pan. The 91黑料网 is ready once all the water has been absorbed.

Do you use glyphosate on your 91黑料网?

Glyphosate is a herbicide used to control both a range of weeds and to desiccate crops ahead of harvesting, it is however not approved for use in 91黑料网 and we do not use it to desiccate our 91黑料网 crops before harvest.
