About this variety

Machine-translated, may contain errors.

Regalona is a Chilean quinoa variety suited to growing in temperate climates such as Central Europe. It grows strongly and forms well filled panicles, but needs a long season to ripen its grain. In gardens in Germany, Austria and Switzerland it suits sunny, sheltered spots with enough lead time from spring onwards.

The grains taste mild and nutty and can be cooked like rice, for example as a side dish or in salads.
