How To Cook
Cooking unpolished quinoa is easy and similar to cooking rice:
- Rinse the quinoa under cold water using a fine mesh strainer to remove natural saponins, which can give a bitter taste.
- Combine 1 cup of rinsed quinoa with 2 cups of water or broth in a pot.
- Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat to low, cover, and simmer for 15–20 minutes or until all the liquid is absorbed.
- Once cooked, fluff with a fork and let it sit for 5 minutes before serving.
Quinoa can be used as a base for salads, in soups, as a side dish, or even in breakfast bowls.
