Steps
1
Measure out the quinoa and place it in the strainer.
2
Rinse the quinoa with a strainer under cold running water. (You also have the option to use a cheesecloth or french press to rinse and strain the quinoa).
3
Transfer the quinoa into the rice cooker and add the filtered water and salt. Mix until it’s all combined.
4
If your rice cooker has the “quick” cook setting, press this button and then start the cooker. If you don’t have this setting, cook the quinoa on the normal rice setting.
5
Once it’s done cooking, use a rice paddle to fluff up the quinoa and serve.
