Rinse quinoa well under
water until it runs clear (a
few minutes) before cooking
so that you can remove the
"saponin", a natural insect
repellent. It is not necessary
to soak quinoa before
cooking.
1 cup quinoa (any color),
rinsed well
1 pinch of salt
1.5 cups of water
1 Lime, zested and squeezed
INSTANT TIP: Measure Grains
To keep your pressure cooked grains from getting mushy, pay
very close attention to the liquid to grain ratios in a recipe—
they should be measured exactly! This can also be done
without a measuring cup—just be sure to use the same glass
or container to measure both the grain and the liquid.
