Plain Boiled Quinoa

Directions

1. 1
   Set quinoa in a bowl of cold water and wash it by rubbing it between your hands.

   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.
