Grown by Andrew and Peter Fairs in the fields of Essex, our quinoa is deliciously nutty and light. It's easy to cook and perfect for salads, as a side dish, in soups or for baking.
Our white quinoa is unpolished and wholegrain, retaining its full flavour and nutrition with a creamier colour than more highly processed quinoa.

Delicate quinoa is tasty, nutritious, versatile and easy to cook.
Rinse, cover with 1½ to two parts water or stock for each 1 part quinoa, bring to the boil and then simmer on a very low heat for 15 minutes. The grains will absorb the water and swell to 2 to 3 times their original size. Fluff the grains apart with a fork.

Suitable for vegans and vegetarians
Very happy to find this quinoa both wholegrain, nourishing and grown in UK! This is the best quinoa i have ever tasted. Usually I don't like the taste of quinoa but this is the exception.
what's not to love, maximum nutrients including protein, whole grain complex carbohydrate proving slow release energy, gut health from high fibre, you can do anything with this quick to cook versatile grain it stands alone like rice or makes burgers, side dishes, stir fries, risotto, paella, jambalaya, kedgeree and ad infinitum!! And forget not, it's cousin fat hen, was found in the stomach of the neanderthal; like barley we deeply understand this grain.
Quick and easy to cook, totally nutritious, endlessly adaptable, this stand alone, gentle, tasty grain also loves any flavours you care to grace it with!!!

When I'm hungry for lunch, or dinner, or just home-alone, and urgently want something that's nutritious, filling and tasty to eat, this is my go-to food. A tray of them in the larder is essential for daily use and for a survival store. It's a meal for one, or add a bit of water to make 2 bowls of soup. Add some creamed coconut or coconut oil to make it richer. Perfect!
Why wouldn't you want wonderfully tasting green pancakes? We also alternate green and yellow blinis for canapés. You can of course make them even greener with a couple of leaves of fresh spinach wizzed into the batter.
All the peas is a nice mix for sprouting for a tasty and healthy snack or addition to salads. Soak in water, drain when fully expanded, rinse twice daily, then sprinkle on salads or like me, just eat a mouthful each time you walk past.
Absolutely loved it
loved it! - The texture was so interesting and the grains really took up the flavour of the spices. Really recommend and will be buying more
