Plain Boiled Quinoa

1. 1

   Set quinoa in a bowl of cold water and wash it by rubbing it between your hands.

2. 2

   Drain and repeat the process until the water is clear.

3. 3

   Transfer the rinsed quinoa to a saucepan and cover with water and some salt.

4. 4

   Bring the liquid to a boil, lower the heat and boil, uncovered, for 10 minutes or until all the grains are translucent.

5. 5

   Take care not to overcook.

6. 6

   Drain the quinoa immediately but do not cool under cold water or the grain will be waterlogged.

7. 7

   If not eating right away, transfer the quinoa to a cloth lined baking pan and fluff up with two forks to help cool the grain a little faster.
