Best video I have seen so far. The reason mine came out mushy is because I soaked it before hand then added 2 cups of water, but you live and learn.

[@csujanani]

I literally just did this too. !! Live and learn ❤

[@guitarnotator]

As Paul Washer says it's probally better to "Learn and live" 😊😊@@csujanani

Absolutely yummy 😋, I do cook quinoa all the time, sometimes I cook it in coconut 🥥 milk to give it that vava vroom which taste absolutely yummy 🤤.

[@DetoxinistaRecipes]

Yum!!

[@brianmarney6011]

Oh, I made quinoa risotto for dinner the other night. Yum.

[@joycelynschmid6928]

Do you leave out salt, just notice salt was not added

[@SuziJacuzzie]

​@@joycelynschmid6928, I normally used a vegetable cube instead of salt but the choice is yours.

[@suekrishnan6880]

Good music

[@dw3992]

I cook quinoa every week. Will do your method next time as is so easy. I make it using 1/2 water & 1/2 either organic chicken or veggie broth & some grass fed butter for more flavor & good fat.

[@DetoxinistaRecipes]

Let me know how you like it!

[@juliamusicplace]

[@eserarmani8803]

Dose quinoa make any fat?

[@diegoangulo370]

So what does it taste like it looks like it tastes like crap lol or soggy rice

[@tinapout430]

Do you have to cook it before adding it to soup

[@DetoxinistaRecipes]

No, it will cook as the soup cooks! But do be sure to add extra liquid since it will absorb some of the soup liquid.

[@brianmarney6011]

Have you tried this in the crockpot?

[@gmister24]

Um seeds are grains

[@scf7334]

No, seeds are seeds. Grains are grains.
