Did You Know?

"How can a nation be great if its bread tastes like Kleenex?"
—Julia Child

"When baking, follow directions. When cooking, go by your own taste."
—Laiko Bahrs

"Eat not to dullness; drink not to elevation"
—Ben Franklin.

"Nouvelle Cuisine, roughly translated, means: "I can't believe I paid ninety-six dollars and I'm still hungry."
—Mike Kalin

The tiny, humble grain known as "quinoa" is not actually a cereal grain at all. It's the fruit of an herb called "Chenopodium" or "Goosefoot." It is native to the Andes, and was a staple of the Incas (who called it the "mother grain"). One cup has more calcium and protein than a quart of milk. Ounce for ounce it has as much protein as meat, contains all of the essential amino acids, and has high amounts of iron. It's no wonder that one of quinoa's many names is "supergrain"!
