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.
Eventually, a thin spot in the filament causes the filament to break, and the bulb burns out.. A halogen lamp also uses a tungsten filament, but it is encased inside a much smaller quartz envelope. Because the envelope is so close to the filament, it would melt if it were made from glass.
