Best way to remove bitterness,
November 14, 2008
By SueTfrom Ocala, FL
"Put the quinoa in a colander & rinse under running water several times until the water runs clear. Also, rub the grains between your fingers as you rinse. This will eliminate most, if not all, of the bitterness. I put a pat of unsalted butter & a pinch of sea salt in the boiling water before adding the quinoa. Delicious."

"This incredibly nutritious grain can take the place of pasta, rice, oatmeal, couscous, soy, or meat. It is completely malleable - i.e. - has no flavor of its own. Make it into pasta salad, sweeten it with honey for breakfast, or mix it with cheese and peppers for an enchilada filling. Vegans, look no further for your perfect food."

"I rated this product 4 stars instead of 5, because I'm still finding a way to rinse the product before cooking to remove initial bitter taste (directions will explain). Otherwise, quinoa is said to have all the amino acids to make it a complete protein AND it's wonderful in taste and gluten-free as well. I'm hoping to use with my toddler for a healthy protein/fiber option and my friend tasted once I cooked it, and she loved it too! Great for the upcoming cool season. Enjoy, utahladyconsumer"

"I feel bad about not giving this one a better rating, but I have to be honest. I rinsed the grains in a strainer first before cooking just like the directions said to do, but the finished product still tasted very bitter (due to the saponins that naturally occur on the grain) even though I cooked with lots of seasonings and even used chicken broth instead of water."
