Ingredients
- 1 cup quinoa
- 2 cups water
- salt, to taste
Instructions
- 1Rinse 1 cup of quinoa under cold running water for 30 seconds, stirring with your hand to remove the bitter saponin coating; drain well.
- 2In a medium saucepan, combine the rinsed quinoa, 2 cups of water, and a pinch of salt.
- 3Bring the mixture to a rolling boil over medium‑high heat.
- 4Once boiling, reduce the heat to low, cover the saucepan with a tight‑fitting lid, and simmer for 15 minutes.
- 5After 15 minutes, remove the saucepan from the heat and let it sit, still covered, for 5 minutes to allow the quinoa to steam and become fluffy.
- 6Uncover the pot and fluff the quinoa gently with a fork, separating the grains.
- 7Taste and adjust seasoning with additional salt if needed.
- 8Transfer the cooked quinoa to a serving bowl and use it as a base for salads, bowls, or side dishes, or store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 4 days.
