So many influencers will say things like "oh these kelp noodles are SO good" or "I promise this cauliflower rice tastes just like rice!" LIES. I love that Nisha tells it like it is.

@donteatthehomies Год назад

I actually love adding plain quinoa to my salads to bulk them up. I don't mind the taste or texture because it absorbs the dressing nicely. But this is a creative spin that I'd definitely try inappropriating into my salads!

@abcdfg4281 7 месяцев назад

True, for me I like to add it to my soups since I barely notice it!

@Eyrascal 8 дней назад

I really need to start doing this. In the past I’ve eaten pre-made salads with quinoa, which were super tasty… but at home I’ve only experimented with it hot. I like stir frying some veggies and adding spices (like cumin, red pepper flakes, etc) then combining it all. Tastes like a crunchier fried rice. The cool thing about cold quinoa being in salads is it really doesn’t need any seasoning when you have the dressing to shine. Seems like a super healthy and convenient way to pack in extra fiber and cold veggies😋 thank you for the inspiration!

@mariaadii Год назад

My favorite way to eat quinoa is with a lemon/tathini dressing, and essentially all of the veggies I have on hand. Tomatoes, cucumbers, avocado, olives...The tahini dressing makes it SO good.

@egle2864 Год назад

@@hortensejones4050there's no definitive research on that yet. Another method I see suggested is to toast quinoa before boiling, which should improve flavour, though won't be crunchy as in Nisha's recipe.

@krie6336 Год назад

@@hortensejones4050 Quinoa should not be affected by cooking and roasting. It is mainly made of fiber, protein, carbs, and trace minerals that don't degrade or "lose nutritional value" from cooking. It does have kaempferol and quercetin that are probably not heat tolerant, but you should just have some kale or arugula for those instead as quinoa contains quite little. Remember it is always better to eat cooked and flavored veggies/whole grains than none at all!

@vanessasplace8690 Год назад

A weird way I started doing quinoa through trial and error is: - rinse - roast it in olive oil(or any oil) and some condiments until you can hear its toasted and smell it ( i usually use vegetable stock powder // not the water one because you wanna roast it ) - cook it with 1.25 cup water to 1 cup quinoa until the water is gone and let it dry out after And bam it usually tastes really good. I know it maybe sounds weird but try it out if you're low on time and want some quinoa.

@lumailisa Год назад

A great post! My top tips for quinoa.... ☺️ (a) Rinse if you have to (better brands don't need rinsing, you will have to test with and without to see if your brand needs it) 2. if you rinsed you will need to dry first before toasting. If you have a dehydrator this is the best way to do it as you don't actually want it to cook at this stage 3. Toast the quinoa in a pan on the stove for a few minutes. It will become aromatic (nutty aroma). Then cook as usual in water and... 4. Lay out on a tray and freeze, when frozen pop in a bag. Easy now to whip out whatever quinoa you need for any given recipe. I add it in small amounts in curries etc as it's a good protein and is super filling without compromising the flavour of the original curry Toasting quinoa before cooking it is key! 🙂

@LauraBriquet Год назад

I can't believe you don't like quinoa. I love it plain. However I also love your recipes, so I would definitely try it this way. ❤

@sarahtrew3314 Год назад

Me too - spent the whole video thinking I am really weird as so many people seem to hate it 😂 I think it has a lovely nutty flavour and as I am a coeliac it makes a great alternative to couscous for me & I also like to mix it with rice and buckwheat! ☺

@florencia2771 Год назад

Quinoa does not taste good unless you find a way to make it taste good, it’s not like white rice.

@ehaley6838 Год назад

@ehaley6838 Год назад

Actually the thought of making quinoa dry and crunchy weirds me out. Maybe as a salad topper? But I like my quinoa light and fluffy. Not dry and crunchy

@jaminwaite3867 Год назад

I think washing the quinoa a bit more would help. I do what Simnett Nutrition does by fill ing a pot with water with the quinoa then whisk it for a good minute and you’ll actually see the soapiness settle on top. And of course I cook it with a bit of broth. But, if I don’t wanna add excess sodium, I’ll mix it with different kinds of rice to increase to diversity of plants.

@MossyMozart Год назад

@jaminwaite3867 - The first time I tried quinoa, it was horribly bitter. I just couldn't understand why so many people loved it. It was a while before I found out that it needed rinsing to get the coating off. The package I bought never mentioned that tidbit.

I've never found quinoa blah. I love it! It's very nutty. I will absolutely wolf it down plain, I love it so much, so much so that I can't resist taking a spoonful every time I pass by it. I don't know if it's the way I prepare it, though. When I prepare it, I soak it overnight, and that really releases a lot of the saponin, and the quinoa soaks up a lot of the water. Then when I cook it, it takes about 45 minutes. I think I use about 1.5 cups of quinoa to 2 cups of water. Then after I cook it, I open the lid and let it dry out with a paper towel covering it. I think drying it out and raking it makes it stay light and fluffy.

Great tips as always💖 I started adding a cup of quinoa to any jasmine rice I make and it is awesome! Adds a little bit more texture to rice but very subtle. I make a green rice. I rough chop •celery • onion •cilantro •green bell pepper •fresh garlic or garlic powder •cumin and/or coriander •salt & pepper Add altogether to a food processor or blender with however much water is needed to cook rice mixture 2/1 ratio. Next: I toast rice and quinoa with onion and olive oil in a pan. Add green mixture to rice briefly stir and cover, bring to boil then reduce heat to low. Cook until ready, roughly 20 minutes (Squeeze lime or lemon over top) (Carefully add green water mixture to pan because it will bubble up!) (If you want to spice it up you could add jalapeño, poblano, Serrano, etc. to green mixture) Chefs kiss 💋
