Quinoa Sprouts - quinoa

Method

• Place the quinoa and water in a 10-inch (25 cm) round or square casserole dish or glass bowl with lid.
• Using a spoon or spatula, tap down on the seeds to ensure all are completely immersed in water.
• Cover and soak them for 40 minutes at room temperature.
• Drain the quinoa and rinse thoroughly.
• Return the quinoa to the original dish and replace the cover, leaving a slight opening for air.
• Place a kitchen towel over to cover completely.
• Allow the sprouts to rest for 8 to 10 hours.
• Repeat the rinse-and-rest process 1 to 2 more times depending on how long you like your sprouts.
• The shorter the sprouts, the longer they last in the refrigerator.
• Be sure to use longer sprouts quickly, optimally within 24 hours.
