How to Cook Rhubarb

Rhubarb is a bitter tasting vegetable most commonly cooked as a dessert or with pies. It is similar to celery, but, has a deep green to bright red color, depending on the variety.

Rhubarb may be eaten raw, but as it is too tart, it is better cooked with sugar. The basic way of cooking it is by stewing, as compote, or baked in sugar. It is also a good addition to savory dishes like lamb.

How to Cook Quinoa

Quinoa can be cooked in a fewsteps.

First, you have to prepare 1 cup quinoa, ½ tsp salt, and 1 ½ cups cold water.

Place the quinoa in a cooking pot and soak it in water for 15 to 30 minutes. This will loosen the quinoa’s outer coating, which can be bitter if not removed.

If you do not have time for soaking, you can immerse the quinoa in hot water for 5 minutes. Rinse the quinoa once or twice.
