I know bulk and barn has it, but it's really hard to wash! They're so small and go through almost any strainer.
I heard you can buy pre-washed Quinoa at grocery stores in the rice section, but I haven't seen it anywhere
Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!This thread is currently associated with: N/A

If this is what i think it is,try Superstore in the Health Food dept.I work there,and we sell it at my store.I belive it is Bob's brand,think there is another brand too.

Costco has it, as does, Loblaws, Metro and any health food store.
Rather than using a strainer, try getting fine mess produce bag or a jelly bag and using that to wash it. I picked mine up at Organic Garage, but you can get jelly bags at any store (wal-mart/zellers etc) in the Canning section.
Enjoy the quinoa. I love making salads with it.

Love Quinoa - and agree with sue on where to get it(sorry BOO know nothing of Superstore stock!). I use a fine mesh strainer that i picked up from the $ store - does the job perfectly!
I was just about to say that i'd never heard of prewashed but checked the Costco stuff i just bought and lo and behold..its pre-washed ,gluten free and organic!

I eat a lot of Quinoa (both colour varieties), and my preferred vendor is Mountain Path. I buy through a co-op group, but you can also find their products in many health food stores. As a pp suggested, you can buy a fine strainer or use fine produce washing bags.
