   Rinse the quinoa well under cold water and drain. Put in a saucepan and add cold water. (Use 2 cups of water for every cup of quinoa.) Toss in a dash of salt. Cover and bring to boil. As soon as it starts to boil, turn the heat down to a simmer, and set the lid just ajar, to prevent boiling over. Simmer for 15-20 minutes. When done turn off the heat, put the lid on and let it chill out for about 5 minutes. It's been through alot!
