You can cook it, it just takes a while. Double or triple the time. It's ridiculous. Cooking pasta can take up to 45 minutes in the high desert.

I live in Colorado and have never had a problem with it. Maybe it's old or something? How high are you? If you're up at 10,000 it's gonna take a while.

Have you tried making it in a rice cooker? It's a worthy investment regardless of altitude. It turns out 100 times better in a rice cooker. I will never make quinoa stovetop again!

No, but I feel like this should have a hashtag like #BoulderProblems.

Good luck, I hope you solve your quinoa quandary!
