FIVE TRANSFORMATIONS OF QUINOA - Quinoa 500g Quinoa (Polish name: quinoa), also known as Peruvian rice, is a plant that, like buckwheat, is a pseudocereal. Cultivated for 5,000 years by the Incas in the mountainous regions of South America, where it originates. Extremely valued by the ancient Incas, who called it the "mother of cereals." Its reputation stems primarily from its very high protein content. The protein contained in quinoa contains all the amino acids that are essential for the human body but are not synthesized in the body and must be supplied by food. Quinoa is also a rich source of manganese, magnesium, calcium, iron, phosphorus, and vitamin E. Quinoa contains a fair amount of fat, but these are mainly valuable unsaturated fatty acids – including omega-3 fatty acids found in fish. Today's comprehensive knowledge of quinoa's composition and its usefulness for humans confirms that the name given to it by the Incas was fully justified. Quinoa is gluten-free. Quinoa has a slightly sweet flavor, making it a great alternative to main courses and desserts. It can be used instead of groats, potatoes, or pasta. For desserts, it can be used in baking cookies.
