Try this: Ingredients TO COOK QUINOA: * 1 cup quinoa Steps 1 TO COOK QUINOA: Soak the quinoa for 15 minutes in the cooking pot. Dripping helps quinoa to cook evenly, and loosens up the outer coating of saponin, which can make a bitter taste if not removed Steps 2 TO COOK QUINOA: If you don’t have time for a longer soaking, use hot water & soak for 5 min Steps 3 TO COOK QUINOA: To Wash: Stir the quinoa w/ your hand, & carefully pour off the washing water, using a adequate net strainer at the end Steps 4 TO COOK QUINOA: Drain quinoa well in the strainer, put it to the cooking pot, sum up 1 1/2 cups water & 1/2 teaspoon salt if preferred Steps 5 TO COOK QUINOA: Bring to a boiling point, cover w/ a difficult fitting lid, and turn the ignite down to simmer Steps 6 TO COOK QUINOA: prepare for 15 minutes Steps 7 TO COOK QUINOA: Remove quinoa from heat and let to sit five min with the lid along Steps 8 TO COOK QUINOA: Fluff quinoa lightly w/ a fork and serve. |
