I love this tutorial! What I love is that you don't spend ages and ages dancing around the subject but that everything included in this video is useful. I feel way more educated, way faster than when I'm wading through longer, ramblier videos. Thank you. I'm subscribing.

This worked perfectly for me! I added in seasonings and a bit of oil, but same 1:1 ratio, 1 min high pressure, and 15 min keep warm made light, fluffy, perfect quinoa.

You wouldn’t believe how many pots of quinoa I’ve ruined by using the packaged instructions?! Seriously!?! And I have ruined more quinoa with some online recipes too! This is THE Best🎉 Quinoa Recipe online, that I’ve found anywhere! ❤thank you 😊

This is the best recipe on YT for this. Most other say 1:1.5 ratio, and that will leave you with runny quinoa. I also spray the bottom of my IP with a bit of olive oil spray and let it keep warm for about 7 minutes before I release the pressure.

I made quinoa back to back using this recipe and this is by far the most delicious, soft and fluffy quinoa I have had. Thank you for such an amazing recipe ❤❤

Great video. What was the quinoa stored in at the end. It doesn’t look like Tupperware. Thanx👍🏾

Wow, I've had my intimidating IP Duo Plus 60 for what seems to be a year, but my first attempts at anything simply aggravated me, so I packed it back into its box to think and decide if I'd made a mistake buying it. Finally decided I had to give it another try and with a bit more patience, realized I could produce perfect quinoa, at last, AND hard boiled eggs ( I was stunned at how easily the shells peeled off!!) So, I've subscribed to you to see if I can keep my good luck roll going. Thanks very much for presenting information so clearly.

Is the cooking time the same for an 8-quart instant pot? Will it still be fluffy if I cook 3 cups of quinoa?

[rebeccaweeden]

If I soak the quinoa overnight before cooking, would I still use the 1:1 ratio or would I use less water?

[Erzavett]

Lo hice tal cual las instrucciones y me quedo cruda 😒

[Pirpilotos]

so total cooking time is 8-10' + 1' + 15' = 24-26' ; why bother with the 'instant' pot then?

[monkeyman]

100% don't follow this. Followed this exactly and I have burnt quinoa I can't use.
