How do i cook quinoa?

Quinoa has a bitter taste to it if not prepared correctly. First, you must rinse it well to remove the bitter coating. Then, boil it for 15 minutes in twice as much water and serve it like rice. It’s exceptionally versatile. Goes well with salads, beans and chopped vegetables. My kid loves it and has been eating it since he was 6months old. It has a nutty taste and my kid eats it with tomato-based sauces and stews. Best to serve it hot.
