Won’t it taste bitter without rinsing? The only thing that I changed is that I rinsed the quinoa for a few minutes. It was somewhat fluffy but a lot of it stuck together in big clumps. Hi Bill, the quinoa won’t taste bitter without rinsing it. Did you stir the quinoa after adding the ingredients to the instant pot before turning it on? Can I cook unsprouted regular quinoa using this method ?
I read in one of your posts that unsprouted quinoa needs to be soaked for about 4hours before cooking. I’ve had issues digesting quinoa in the past. Hi Zopi, this method will work for any kind of quinoa! I used chicken broth instead of water and it turned out perfect! I tried another I found online and it didn’t come out as nice and fluffy as this one did!
