Use

It also contains mainly low glycaemic index carbohydrates and noble fats, sodium, iron, zinc and copper. Use it to prepare tasty cold salads, appetising soups or as a binding agent!Preparation and cooking
Prepare the quinoa by rinsing it and cooking it in salted water for 15-20 minutes after boiling. The water should be three times the weight of the quinoa being cooked (example: cook 100g quinoa in 300ml water). Add a drizzle of raw EVO oil and season to taste.
