for a few minutes then you will get rid ofthat bitter taste. now i'm going to add my two cups of vegetablebroth to my saucepan. and my one and a half cups of rinsed quinoa. and we're going to bring this over to ourstove and cook it on high until it comes to a boil. now that the quinoa has come to aboil we will turn the heat right down to low and just cover it with a lid and let it simmerfor 15 minutes. now we will turn the heat off and let it sitfor 5 minutes. we will take it off the stove and put it into a bowl. and then just fluffit a bit with a fork. it smells so good, it's a really nutty tasting grain and again, gluten-freeand super high in protein.
