FAQ
Why should I rinse quinoa before cooking?
Quinoa has a natural saponin coating that tastes bitter. Rinse it in a fine sieve under cold running water until the water runs clear before cooking.
How do I cook quinoa grain?
Use 1 part quinoa to 2 parts water. Bring to the boil, cover and simmer for about 15 minutes, until the grains turn translucent and the germ separates from the seed. Rest briefly, then fluff with a fork.
Which quinoa should I choose?
This white quinoa is the softest and fluffiest, and the everyday choice. Prefer certified organic? See Organic Quinoa Grain. For firmer grains that hold their shape in salads, try Red Quinoa.
