Qinoa Twist pasta
French quinoa cooperative Quinoa d’Anjou has developed fusilli-shaped, gluten-free pasta.
High in protein and fibre, the twists are made with just two ingredients – quinoa and water – and can be cooked in five minutes. They have a nutty flavour, it said, and can be eaten hot or cold.
The recommended retail price is between €2.70 and €3 for a 250 g packet and the pasta is available in Système U supermarkets as well as specialist food shops.
Grown in the Loire valley, the Quinoa d’Anjou cooperative also manufactures a sugar-free breakfast cereal of puffed quinoa grain.
