Basic soaked quinoa

Step 1

Put dry quinoa in a glass bowl and add water until it covers the quinoa by a couple inches. Add the acidic medium and stir to combine. Cover and let it sit for 2 hours or more. Drain the quinoa into a fine mesh sieve and rinse thoroughly.

Step 2

Add the soaked quinoa, stock, salt, and pepper and bring to a boil.

Step 3

Reduce the heat to low, cover, and cook until the stock has been absorbed, about 15 minutes.

Step 4

Remove the quinoa from the heat and let stand, covered, for 5 minutes.

Step 5

Fluff with a fork and serve.
