More Grains: Kaniwa and Teff
Everyone is on the lookout for the next quinoa and there are a few contenders. From East Africa, there’s teff, a wheat-like grain that’s gluten free as well as high in calcium, protein, iron and amino acids. From South America, like its distant relative quinoa, there’s kaniwa, a dark reddish-brown grain with a slightly nutty flavor that is also gluten free and high in protein. Which one will win the hearts of Americans in 2015?
