Quinoa can be cooked in many different ways, depending on what you’ll be using it for and how you’ll be eating it. You can use quinoa for salads, as side dishes, in baked goods, in bars, granola–the list goes on. Whether you’re cooking quinoa on the stove or using a different method, the general grain to water ratio tends to be 1:2, just like rice and many other grains. Here are three cooking methods you can try:

On the Stovetop
This is a very simple and standard cooking method, and probably the one you’re most familiar with. Combine water, quinoa, and a pinch of salt in a saucepan and bring to a boil. Once boiling, cover with a lid and reduce to a simmer. Cook until grains are tender and water is absorbed, 15 to 20 minutes.
With a Rice Cooker
If you decide to cook your quinoa using a rice cooker, do exactly what you would normally do if you were using rice. Add the water, quinoa, and a pinch of salt, then cover with the lid and turn the rice cooker on. Check-in occasionally to make sure the quinoa doesn’t overcook.

Boil and Drain Method
This is a foolproof method that works great if you’re concerned about getting mushy, overcooked quinoa. Bring a saucepan of water to a boil (use significantly more water than quinoa), then add the quinoa and boil until tender, about 15 minutes, depending. Drain in a fine-mesh sieve and return to the saucepan or a different bowl.
