"Quinoa is one of the world’s most popular health foods. Quinoa is gluten-free, high in protein and one of the few plant foods that contain sufficient amounts of all nine essential amino acids. It is also high in fiber, magnesium, B vitamins, iron, potassium, calcium, phosphorus, vitamin E and various beneficial antioxidants."
Quinoa is easy to prepare. It’s cooked very similar to rice but takes a bit less time. There are also a variety of ways to cook it including on the stove, in the microwave, and in a pressure or rice cooker. It is best to rinse quinoa before cooking. For most cooking methods, you need two parts of liquid to one part quinoa. That means if you are cooking 1 cup of quinoa, you will need 2 cups of liquid. The liquid can be water, but try broth/stock for even more flavor. While it isn’t necessary, you can also add a pinch of salt to the liquid for seasoning. When you’re deciding how much to cook, keep in mind that 1 cup of quinoa will yield about 3 cups of cooked quinoa. To cook quinoa on the stove, add the rinsed quinoa and liquid (water or broth) to a medium saucepan. Bring the mixture to a boil, and then reduce the heat so that the liquid is at a low simmer. Most packages recommend covering the saucepan at this point, but we’ve found that you can leave the pan uncovered and the quinoa turns out beautifully. It might even make it slightly more fluffy. Cook the quinoa at a low simmer until all the liquid has absorbed. This will take 10 to 15 minutes. When the liquid has absorbed, slide the pan off of the heat and cover with a lid for five minutes. After five minutes, use a fork to fluff the cooked quinoa then use in your favorite recipes.
