The Damen family has been using organic farming methods to grow healthy alternative grains and seeds for more than a decade in the prime agricultural region of North-West Tasmania.
The rich fertile red soil, abundance of water and seasonal sunshine allows us to grow nutrient-rich whole foods as they were grown for thousands of years.
Description
Kindred Organics is the first organic quinoa grower in Australia, and we also grow hemp, spelt, buckwheat, oats and grassfed beef. Our products are grown, stored, processed and packed on our family farm in Kindred, Tasmania.
How to cook:
- Rinse quinoa with running water for 30sec (this will remove some of the bitterness)
- Cook quinoa in a ratio of 1:2. So, for every 1 cup of quinoa, cook in 2 cups of water
- Bring water to the boil, add quinoa and simmer for 10-20 min or until all of the water has been absorbed.
- Allow to stand for 5 min with the lid on to finish steaming.
- Add into salads or try seasoning with salt & pepper & drizzle with olive oil for a light fluffy side dish.
