Put quinoa to use in a unique way with our Crispy QuinoaPannisse. We love pairing it with this homemade aioli sauce!

For the Pannisse

  • 2 cups sifted white quinoa flour
  • 4 cups vegetable stock
  • 3 tablespoons butter
  • 2 tsp salt


Line a half sheet pan (13 by 18 by 1-inch pan) with oiled parchment paper.
Bring the vegetable stock, butter and salt to a boil, slowly add the Quinoa flour while whisking constantly to avoid lumps. Cook over high heat until themixture begins pulling away from the sides of the pan, continue to cook for two minutes. Pour the doughonto the prepared pan and spread evenly. Zest the lemon over the entire surface. Place plastic wrap directly on top of thepanisse to prevent a skin from forming. Refrigerate for about 1 hour, until completely set. Cut into desired shapes.
Heat grapeseed oil to 350°F and fry thepanisse pieces in small batches for about one minuteor until golden brown and crispy. Drain on paper towels, arrange on a platter, and serveimmediate
