Quinoa (Pronounced: lí) (Scientific Name: Chenopodium quinoa Willd)
Quinoa, originally native to the Andean region of South America, has been a primary traditional food of the indigenous people of the Inca civilization for 5,000 to 7,000 years. Due to its unique and comprehensive nutritional value, quinoa has nourished the Inca people, and the ancient Incas referred to it as "the mother grain." Quinoa seeds come in several color varieties, primarily white, black, and red, with similar nutritional profiles. Among these, the white variety has the best texture, while the black and red varieties have slightly inferior textures and smaller grains.
In the 1980s, quinoa was selected by NASA as a food for astronauts during space missions. The United Nations Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) recognizes quinoa as the only single plant that can almost entirely meet human basic nutritional needs and officially recommends it as the most suitable complete nutritional food for humans. In 2013, the United Nations declared the International Year of Quinoa to promote human nutrition, health, and food security, and to achieve the Millennium Development Goals.
