Confession time: I have never been able to get excited about quinoa. That all just changed with the discovery of these Cheesy Quinoa and Broccoli Patties. I simply substituted 10 ounces of frozen broccoli for the fresh (just cook and drain it before adding to the patty mixture).
The halogen lamp is also known as a quartz halogen and tungsten halogen lamp. It is an advanced form of incandescent lamp. The filament is composed of ductile tungsten and located in a gas filled bulb just like a standard tungsten bulb, however the gas in a halogen bulb is at a higher pressure (7-8 ATM). The glass bulb is made of fused quartz, high-silica glass or aluminosilicate.
Light is produced by a tungsten filament operating at about 3000 K temperature in an atmosphere of inert gases (Krypton, Argon, Nitrogen) to which a halogen (Iodine or Bromine, or both) has been added.. 3000 K. Halogen bulbs are used by many people, although not the majority. They are more expensive than regular light bulbs, but they are more energy efficient. Halogen bulbs consist of inert gases and a halogen gas (bromine or iodine, for example). These gases, along with a small filament of tungsten, are encased in a small quartz envelope.
