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.

These black beans are incredibly creamy and full of flavour - easily the best dried black beans I’ve ever had. They cooked to perfection in just an hour, with not a single tough or undercooked bean in the pot. Unlike other brands I’ve tried, these French-grown beans from Hodmedod’s are clearly fresh, not something that’s been languishing in a warehouse for years. If this level of quality holds across the rest of the new Ferm des 3 Rois range, I’ll be a regular customer. If it remains consistent over time, I’ll keep coming back for more.
I have been baking sourdough for many years using various starters including making my own. This is the best I have ever used as recommended by Henrietta Inman. Along with YQ flour this makes wonderful 100% wholewheat bread.
For my breakfast I generally have Kefir soaked with oats. Bought black Barley recently and started adding a spoon of it to the mix. It has added a new depth to the flavour and hugely elevated the pleasure of that meal. Please grow more of it.
My first loaf using Hope Farm YQ wholemeal together with Crow Hill Farm Rye starter/leaven, I found the taste exceptional with a lovely moist crumb, no big holes but plenty of acceptable ones. I baked it with a reasonable amount of steam in the oven. This flour is not cheap but for me the quality well justifies the cost.
I enjoy these with soya milk and berries as a porridge
