anyone have
advice about good ways to prepare these?  Both of them are ancient  
varieties in
their regions of origin.>>>

Quinoa is a New World grain. I don't think I have any recipes using  
it in the Florilegium, but there are mentions of it in these files in  
the FOOD-BREADS-GRAINS section:

For rice info, check this file, although most of the recipes using  
rice are scattered among other files. You might try the Florilegium  
search engine for some recipes.
