We love quinoa - prounanced keen-wah. It provides a great alternative to wheat and other grains with gluten and is easily digestible. We dry our pasta slowly, with traditional bronze die plates, at low temperatures in order to preserve the nutritional quantities of the raw ingredients. We love quinoa - prounanced keen-wah.
