What it is
Quinoa flour is made from ground quinoa seeds. Quinoa is a flowering plant in the amaranth family, grown for its edible seeds. It is a pseudocereal, meaning it is not a true cereal grain but is used similarly in cooking and baking.
Why it's used
Quinoa flour is used as a gluten-free alternative to wheat flour in baking. It can be found in muffins, breads, pancakes, and pasta. Its mild, slightly nutty flavor and good binding properties make it versatile.
Health notes
Quinoa flour is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA. It is a good source of protein, fiber, and essential minerals. International bodies like JECFA have evaluated quinoa and its components. It is not associated with significant health controversies at typical consumption levels.
Allergen info
Quinoa is not one of the nine major allergens recognized by the FDA. It is naturally gluten-free.
