Directions: Soak for 10 minutes, rinse. In a pot, add 1 ¼ cups + 1 tbsp of water, 1 cup quinoa, ½ tsp salt and several drops of olive oil (optional). Let boil fiercely for 30 seconds, reduce the heat, and simmer for 13 - 14 minutes, or until all the water is absorbed. Turn off the heat, fluff up, cover, and let sit for another 5 minutes to finish cooking.
