Gtrs, I had it for the first time at a friend's home Christmas Day. She made a cold salad with it, and it was delicious! However, I couldn't say how much of the taste was the quinoa.

I asked her what was so special about quinoa. She said that it is a whole protein. She said that beans and rice together make up a whole protein, but quinoa does it by itself.

Yep, contains the essential amino acids, just like meat.

This is great advice. And when you are done rinsing it, rinse it again.

I see that there is a company called Roland which sells its quinoa in various colors pre-washed.

I used the pre-washed stuff the first few times I made it, but then I bought it from a bulk store because it was cheaper. I didn't know that the washing mattered until I made a batch of the new stuff and it was rather unpleasant.

Kind of like me when I haven't washed for a while.

Thank you for reposting! There is a pressure cooker recipe book in there. I haven't seen many of those for free so I grabbed it.

I've been eyeing the do-it-all Instant Pot. Does anyone use one? Do you like it?
