How to Use
Rinse 1 cup of quinoa in a fine-mesh strainer under cold water to remove the natural bitter coating, then combine with 2 cups of water or broth in a saucepan. Bring to a boil, reduce heat, cover, and simmer 15 minutes, then let stand covered for 5 minutes before fluffing with a fork. Use in grain bowls, salads, stuffed peppers, or as a side dish. Store the dry bag in an airtight container in a cool, dry pantry.
About Bob's Red Mill
Founded in 1978 in Milwaukie, Oregon, Bob's Red Mill built its name on slow stone-ground milling, a technique that keeps more of the grain intact than high-speed steel roller mills. The company has been fully employee-owned for years and is known for non-GMO ingredients and straightforward labeling.

Frequently Asked Questions
Does Bob's Red Mill Organic Tricolor Quinoa contain allergens?
This quinoa does not list wheat, milk, soy, or nut ingredients, and it carries a certified gluten-free label. Because facility and allergen notices can be updated between production runs, read the printed panel on the bag for the most current information before serving it to anyone with a food allergy.
How should I store Bob's Red Mill Organic Tricolor Quinoa?
Keep the unopened bag in a cool, dry pantry away from sunlight and moisture. After opening, transfer the dry quinoa to an airtight container to protect it from humidity and pests. Dry quinoa keeps well for many months past opening this way; check the printed best-by date and give it a quick smell check before cooking an older bag.
What is the difference between tricolor quinoa and plain white quinoa?
Tricolor quinoa blends white, red, and black quinoa, giving a more varied texture — the red and black grains stay slightly firmer after cooking than white quinoa alone. Flavor is similar across the three colors, mildly nutty, but the blend looks more visually striking in salads and bowls. Both are prepared the same way and cook in the same time.
Where does Bob's Red Mill Organic Tricolor Quinoa come from?
Bob's Red Mill cleans, tests, and packages this quinoa at its Milwaukie, Oregon facility, where the company has operated since 1978. The exact growing region can vary by harvest, so check the printed label for any country-of-origin detail on your specific bag; the packaging and quality testing are handled in the US.
