Quinoa Saladwith puffkin, Spinach & amp; feta cheese

Introduction:

Quinoa, originated in South America, is the main traditional food of Inca indigenous people. It is considered as the sacred "mother of grain". It has been planted for more than 5000 years and has the effect of preventing diseases and reducing weight. The main edible seeds of quinoa are flaky and oblate. The size is close to millet, and the colors are milky white, milky yellow, purple and other colors. Its seed has high nutritional value, rich in minerals and vitamins, and its protein content is more than twice that of rice, especially contains lysine which is lacking in general grains. FAO has listed it as the only food with single plant that can meet the perfect nutritional needs of human body. Quinoa is cooked in boiling water for about 10-15 minutes, just like millet. It can be eaten after it is expanded and slightly fragrant. Because there is a layer of soluble saponin on the surface of quinoa seed, it needs to be soaked in water or repeatedly washed before eating to avoid astringency. It's better to eat it after soaking, so it's more nutritious. At the same time, there's a creaking sound between the teeth after cooking / steaming, with the smell of nuts. It's absolutely healthy food
