Q » How do you cook quinoa so it's fluffy and not bitter?
30 Oct, 2025
A » To cook fluffy, non-bitter quinoa, rinse it thoroughly under cold water to remove saponins, which cause bitterness. Use a 2:1 water-to-quinoa ratio, bring to a boil, then simmer covered for 15 minutes. Remove from heat and let it sit, covered, for 5 minutes. Fluff with a fork before serving. This method ensures a light, fluffy texture and a pleasant taste.
