Quinoa

Cultural Context

Quinoa, native to the Andean region of South America, was a staple for the Incas, who referred to it as the 'mother grain.' Its high protein content and versatility have made it a popular choice in modern diets, especially among health-conscious eaters. Today, quinoa is enjoyed globally, often featured in salads, bowls, and as a side dish.
