Has anyone had experience cooking with Quinoa? I am so curious to see what it is like. Quinoa is supposed to be sooo good for you. I like barley, brown rice, wild rice, lentils and stuff like that. But to cook these things wrong can put a bad taste in your mouth if they come out bland. So the first time I make quinoa, I'd like to do it right. Would you use the same concepts as cooking with the other grains I mentioned (e.g. cooking them in broth and herbs pilaf style, or add flavoring by sauteing it after cooked with, say garlic and herbs)?
Can quinoa simply be substituted for barley and similar grains?
Also, any links to recipes would be greatly appreciated.
