DIRECTIONS
Cooking Instructions: 1 cup quinoa to 2 cups boiling water. Begin by soaking quinoa in warm water for 5 minutes. Wash, drain, and rinse several times with clear water. Add quinoa to boiling water, cover and return to a boil, lower heat to simmer and cook for 10-15 minutes or until water is absorbed. Serve hot or cool to add to other recipes. (For an extra nutty flavor, place the dry grain in a dry frying pan, gently stir and toast to a very light brown before adding to boiling water.)
