Ancient Andean nourishment. Complete plant protein. One simple ingredient.
Quinoa has been cultivated in the Andes for generations and was so highly valued by the Incas that it became known as the “Mother of All Grains.”
INCA’S GOLD Organic White Quinoa is grown in Bolivia on the high-altitude Andean Altiplano surrounding the Salar de Uyuni salt flats. The harsh growing conditions of this region produce the larger-grained variety known as Royal Quinoa.
Naturally mild and slightly nutty, it cooks up light and fluffy and makes an easy nutrient-dense alternative to rice, pasta and other grains.
🌿 Why We Chose It
✓ A Complete Plant Protein
Quinoa is unusual among plant foods because its protein provides all 9 essential amino acids — making it a great whole-food protein option, especially for plant-based meals.
✓ Royal Quinoa from the Bolivian Andes
This isn’t just ordinary quinoa. INCA’S GOLD sources its quinoa from the Andean Altiplano near Bolivia’s Salar de Uyuni, where the unique growing conditions produce the larger-grained quinoa known as Royal Quinoa.
✓ Twice Washed
Quinoa naturally has a bitter outer coating containing saponins. INCA’S GOLD quinoa is twice washed, helping remove that bitterness and making it convenient to prepare.
✓ Naturally Gluten-Free
A naturally gluten-free whole food and an easy alternative to many traditional grains.
✓ Source of Important Nutrients
Quinoa naturally provides protein, fibre and minerals including iron, magnesium and phosphorus.
✓ Lower-Glycemic Whole-Food Option
Quinoa generally produces a gentler blood-sugar response than many refined carbohydrate foods, making it a versatile whole-food carbohydrate.
✓ Nothing Added
Just 100% organic white quinoa — no additives, preservatives or unnecessary ingredients.
🍚 Easy to Use
Use it anywhere you’d normally use rice: grain bowls, salads, soups, stuffed vegetables, breakfast porridge or as a simple side dish.
To cook: Combine 1 part quinoa with 2 parts water or broth. Bring to a boil, cover and simmer for approximately 15 minutes. Remove from heat, rest for 5 minutes, then fluff with a fork.
