Yöntemler

1. Toast quinoa in pot a bit (high heat) before adding broth. Do not blacken.

2. Add broth. Bring to rolling boil, unconvered.

3. Cover. Drop to simmer for 15 mins. Stirring occasionally.

4. Remove from heat and open. Fluff with fork.

5. Transfer to bowl to cool. Just down till easy to handle & won’t melt cheese. Still warm is good.

6. Add all chopped ingredients and spices.

7. Add red vinegar. Do not skip.

8. Necessary to use acid to cut the heartiness of the Chicken Broth + MSG.

9. Serve warm or cold. Makes enough to save.

Do NOT use onion powder. It ruins it.
