So. QUINOA. Quinoa gets a terrible rap for being this faddish Gluten Free food. And it is true I probably wouldn’t have tried it if I wasn’t gluten free - but I never did grits before I went gluten free either, and live right down in grits county, North Carolina in the U.S. of A.!
You need to give quinoa a chance. I buy it in bulk at Sams, now, as you can see - eat it instead of rice with dinners.
I've put up a post (copied and pasted shamelessly here) on how to make quinoa in the Instapot. https://myashleyetc.blogspot.com/2019/09/instapot-quinoa.html
I'm going to show you how to make quinoa salad in a couple weeks, so I wanted to put how to make your basic quinoa if you don't have an Instapot. It turns out just fine on the stove, that's the way I did it for years. The only thing is - you have to keep an eye on it, because once it boils, it boils over QUICK.
BASIC QUINOA
2 cups quinoa
3 cups water or broth
Put two cups of quinoa in three cups water or broth in a saucepan over high heat. Heat to boiling. When quinoa starts boiling, reduce heat to low and cover. Cook for 20 minutes on low. Let sit five minutes, covered, then fluff with a fork before serving.
