How long do you cook Quinoa?

You typically cook quinoa for 15-20 minutes after it comes to a boil.

Here's a general guide:

1. Ratio: Use 1 cup of quinoa to 2 cups of water or broth.

2. Bring to a boil: Combine quinoa and liquid in a pot. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat.

3. Simmer: Reduce heat to a simmer, cover, and cook for 15-20 minutes, or until the liquid is absorbed and the quinoa is fluffy.

4. Rest: Let the quinoa rest, covered, for 5 minutes before fluffing with a fork.

Tips:

* Don't overcook: Quinoa can become mushy if cooked for too long.

* Fluffing: Fluffing with a fork helps to release any trapped steam and prevents the quinoa from becoming clumpy.

* Seasoning: You can add salt or other seasonings to the cooking water for extra flavor.

* Variations: Quinoa can also be cooked in a rice cooker or pressure cooker.

Enjoy your delicious and nutritious quinoa!
