Yield 8 cups

Number Of Ingredients 2

2 cups raw quinoa, about 1 pound
Water

Steps:

  • Spread quinoa on a baking sheet and remove any bits of twig or stone.
  • Place quinoa in a large bowl of cold water and rub gently for a couple of minutes, then transfer to a fine strainer and rinse well.
  • Place quinoa in a heavy saucepan. Add 4 cups of cold water. Bring to a boil, cover, lower heat and simmer very gently for about 20 minutes, until tender, somewhat translucent with tiny ivory rings or ''halos'' on each grain. Remove from heat. Quinoa is now ready to season and serve or to use in recipes. If cooking liquid is required in a recipe, simmer quinoa in 4 parts water to 1 of grain, uncovered, and drain when done.
