You should try soaking them for 12 or 24 hours…….they come up all soft and fluffy! Takes 5 minutes less to cook and by soaking them from that long you have activated enzymes and this makes them even better for you. Makes them sprout and they start growing and then you get all that goodness. Well worth the hassle of remembering to do it in advance.

I soak mine in water with a couple of table spoons of apple cider vinegar. Lemon is good too.

If you make quinoa, boil it with homemade stock…..yummm!

I usually chuck in a carrot or celery when I boil them up (if I don’t have homemade stock about).….adds some nice flavour.

i never tried Amaranth, i will find some and try it. thx
