Cook the quinoa: 1) rinse the quinoa (easiest to do in a fine sieve); 2) place the quinoa in a saucepan with twice as much water i.e. 2/3 cup water for 1/3 cup quinoa; 3) bring the
mixture to boil then reduce to a very
gentle simmer, pop the lid
on and let it cook for 15 minutes, stirring occasionally; 4) after the 15 minutes remove from the
heat and let it sit with the lid
on for 10 minutes.
