When I discovered Kosher for Passover soy sauce I discovered a whole new menu of foods. I love cooking chinese and this version of vegetable fried rice using quinoa is great for Passover and all year round. Add tofu if it is not Passover. It is best to use day old quinoa for this, but works either way. Reheats well.

Add last tablespoon of oil to the pan and then add the quinoa to the pan and stir. After everything is mixed together, make a space in the pan and pour in the beaten eggs.

There are a few KFP Grape Seed Oils, I just saw online that there will be on from Bartenura this year. I find a big difference between brands of soy sauce during the year, so I would say that the pesach one is more like the not as good regular soy sauce. Works well in dishes like this when there is a lot going on for flavor that the soy is more for color and a little saltiness.
Grape seed oil for Pesach? What brand? Also how true is the pesadik soy sauce on flavor?
