Taste & Role

Savory

Serves as a light main dish, breakfast, or street-food-style snack; the pliable pancake works as an edible wrapper for eggs, fresh vegetables, herbs, and sauces, much like a savory crepe or tortilla.

What it is

A quinoa wrap is a thin, pan-fried savory pancake made from a batter of quinoa flour or blended cooked quinoa, often mixed with scallions and egg. It is a modern, health-conscious spin on the classic Chinese jianbing street crepe, swapping in protein-rich quinoa for the traditional wheat or mung bean flour. Cooked until golden with crisp, lacy edges, it is typically rolled or folded around savory fillings.
