how to cook quinoa on stove

Quinoa, a seed that has been a staple in the Andean diet for thousands of years, has gained superfood status around the globe for its high protein content and rich array of vitamins and minerals. When cooked, it becomes fluffy and slightly chewy, with a delicate flavor that makes it an ideal canvas for breakfast creations.

  • Rinse quinoa seeds Thoroughly: Quinoa naturally has a bitter-tasting coating called saponin. To remove this, rinse the quinoa under cold water using a fine mesh strainer, rubbing the seeds with your hands. Rinse until the water runs clear.
  • Use the Right Ratio of Water to Quinoa: The standard ratio is 2 cups of water for every cup of dry quinoa. However, for an even fluffier texture, you can presoak quinoa in water for about half an hour.
  • Before cooking, adding a pinch of salt to the water will enhance the quinoa’s natural flavor.
  • Cooking Process: Bring the water (with quinoa) to a boil, then reduce it to a simmer. Cover the pot with a tight lid to prevent steam from escaping. Simmering is essential for allowing the quinoa to puff up and become fluffy.
  • Avoid Stirring: Once the quinoa is simmering, avoid the temptation to stir it. Stirring can break down the grains and release starches, leading to a stickier result.
  • Cook the quinoa for about 15 to 20 minutes. You’ll know it’s done when it’s tender, and you can see the little quinoa “tails” (the kernel’s germ) curling out from the seeds. 
  • Let It Sit: Once your timer goes off, turn off the heat and let the quinoa sit, covered, for another 5 minutes. This allows the quinoa to steam further and keeps it from being too wet or clumpy.
  • Fluff with a Fork: After letting it sit, remove the lid and fluff the quinoa gently with a fork. This separates the grains without compacting them, leading to a mushy texture.
