[quote=Anonymous]I find that the pressure cooker gives quinoa a much nicer texture (more fluffy, less wet) than making it in a regular pan. However, you have to make a bigger batch, at least with my pressure cooker. Like all the PPs, I rinse before cooking. I pretty much use quinoa wherever I might otherwise use rice. Red beans and quinoa is a weekday dinner staple. I also combine store-bought Indian dishes (the kind that come in foil pouches) with quinoa 1:1 to tone down the sodium/sat fat content when I need to make a really really fast meal. I recently made a pot of collard greens and didn't want to pitch the cooking broth but also don't like soupy vegetables, so I just threw in a bunch of (already cooked) quinoa. It was delicious and I may start making more greens-in-quinoa dishes.[/quote]
