Guest guest Posted July 31, 2006 Report Share Posted July 31, 2006 Like any other grain Quinoa can be prepared in many ways. It's protein count is higher than any other grain. I like it because it is fast cooking, light, very different taste and appearance,and very inexpensive if bought generically packaged/bulk. Prepare it as you would any other grain. I sometimes eat it plain with salt and butter substitute or with sugar and spices such as cinnamon, nutmeg, etc. I like to cook it just until it still had a tiny bit of a 'crunch'. Here in the high altitude apx. 20 min. Just don't over cook,and drain well to get rid of that slight bitter taste. That's why I like the generic packages and not brand name because it seems to have a 'sweeter' flavor and costs less than $2 per lb. Donna I haven't tried your cardamom on the Quinoa but I bet it would taste great. Sending smiles and hugs Deanna Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
