Cooking with Quinoa:
Rinse quinoa thoroughly in fresh clean water until it runs clear, using a fine strainer. Drain well before cooking.
Use 1 cup quinoa to 2 cups water to make 3 cups of cooked quinoa.
Place quinoa and water in a saucepan, and add salt to taste.
Bring to a boil, reduce heat to simmer, cover, and cook until all of the water is absorbed (12-15 mins).
Unlike rice, you can stir quinoa a few times to prevent sticking.
The quinoa is done when it turns from white to transparent, and the germ has spiraled out of the grain.
Turn off the heat and set aside for 5 minutes; uncover and lightly fluff with a fork.
