Quinoa = rice cooker?
Hey guys, I'm a vegetarian and am just getting into the quinoa (thanks Whole Foods). I love my crock pot for my husband's meats and was thinking along the same lines for my food. Do any of you have any advise or preferance for how to cook quinoa? Can you use a rice cooker? Pros and Cons of doing so? Thank you! Tara

Re: Quinoa = rice cooker?
Quinoa is easy to do on the stove-top, but I usually do it in my rice cooker anyway. The one I have is so very basic; the settings are "cook" and "warm."
It takes about 30min to cook in there, start to finish, which is no more or less than the stove top, given the time it takes to boil the water. I have a quinoa tag in my blog.

Thanks for posting. I was wondering about this. I also make polenta and millet in it. If you freeze rice, it doesn't dry out. I wonder if that's true of quinoa too. I either freeze my rice or just leave it in the cooker. It's good for a couple days as long as it isn't too hot.
