Ingredients

1 cup quinoa or 1/2 cup teff
2 cups water
1/4 teaspoon salt optional

Directions

Quinoa only: measure into a saucepan half full of cold water.

Swish quinoa briskly with your hand, then pour it into a fine strainer to drain.

Repeat two or more times, until your water runs clear and doesn't foam when agitated.

Drain again.

Bring quinoa or teff, water and salt to a boil.

Reduce heat and simmer, covered, for 15 to 20 min, until the water is absorbed.

Remove from heat, and cover for 5 min more.

Note: Add quinoa or teff to soups in either of two ways: 1) Add them, uncooked to the pot a half hour before serving time 2)

Add them cooked (left-over) to the pot 10 min before serving.
