Quinoa is one of the ingredients that have been regarded as “super foods” in recent years, so let’s get to know more about it today!
The United Nations General Assembly declared 2013 as the “International Year of Quinoa” as its nutritional value has been generally recognized.
Quinoa is mainly produced in South America. Quinoa is not regarded as a grain in biological classification, so it is also called a pseudocereal.
Super Food From South America
However, because of its high nutritional value, people still regard it as a whole grain food.
The glycemic index of quinoa is about 53, which is a low-glycemic food. Your blood sugar level will not spike high after consuming it. The dietary fiber of quinoa is higher than brown rice, which makes it suitable for people with diabetes.
The most prominent part is that quinoa is considered a complete source of protein, which means that it can provide all nine essential amino acids.
In fact, the protein of quinoa is higher than barley, rice and corn, and is a high-quality source of protein.
So next time when you cook, you can mix quinoa with white rice/brown rice and put them all together in a rice cooker. It’s convenient, fast, and nutritious!
