Fine Mesh Strainer
medium saucepan with lid
measuring cup and spoon
fork for fluffing quinoa
- 1 cup quinoa
- 2 cups bone broth
- 1/4 tsp sea salt adjust to taste
Begin by rinsing the uncooked quinoa in a fine mesh strainer. This will help remove any bitter taste.
In a medium saucepan combine 1 cup quinoa, 2 cups bone broth, and 1/4 tsp sea salt. Bring the mixture to a boil over medium-high heat.
Once boiling, reduce heat to low and cover with a lid. Allow quinoa to simmer for about 15-20 minutes, or until all the liquid is absorbed and the quinoa is tender.
For fluffy quinoa, once fully cooked, remove the saucepan from the heat and let it sit, covered, for about 5 minutes. Then, use a fork to fluff the quinoa and separate the grains.
Serve sprinkled with additional salt if desired. Enjoy it as a wholesome and delicious addition to your meal!
