Quinoa is native to South America and famous for its edible seeds. It is a grain crop that is considered a herbaceous annual plant. Red Quinoa is another common type of Quinoa. There are a lot of colour varieties of Quinoa, and the white Quinoa is the most well-known. Black and red Quinoa are also getting popular among people.
A South American Native Flowering plant, called Chenopodium quinoa, produces Red Quinoa. Inca soldiers used to call it by the name, Inca red. That’s why it is also famous by that name in the native region. When red quinoa seeds are uncooked, they are crunchy, flat, and oval. They form a small sphere shape just like couscous when they are properly cooked. Cooked red Quinoa has a chewy and fluffy texture. Even though these seeds are known as red quinoa seeds, sometimes they have a violet colour. Although it is a pseudocereal, people consider it a whole grain.
Just like white Quinoa, red Quinoa can be used in most of the cases. But the thing is, it doesn’t provide much help in sweet dishes. You can use it in salads, as a rice replacement, or in grain bowls, but it is not suitable for baking items. Red Quinoa has a nuttier flavour and super crunchy texture. It tastes more delicious than white Quinoa.
