Reply To: Kosher L’Pesach Grains

All grains are grasses. Quinoa is not a grass. Last year I surveyed pesach lists all over the world and found that almost all permitted quinoa. However, it has to be processed in a factory that does not process chametz so that would eliminate most brands of quinoa although the rest of the year it would be kosher without a hechsher as it is a raw agricultural product. The Ancient Harvest brand carried in many health food stores with a Half Moon K was processed in a factory that did not process chametz and hopefully that will continue to be the case.
