Experimental Cooking
Ok, so maybe cooking quinoa in apple juice wasn’t a perfect idea. It was just a little “too much”.
Too tart, too overpowering, too warm? It was better with a bit of milk which cooled it down and mellowed the taste. I’m not one who likes milk in my porridge so; I wasn’t initialing going to eat it that way. I put the milk in my son’s bowl—his first time trying quinoa—and he seemed to like it.
Next time, I’ll cook it plain and add applesauce. That might be the way to go.
But the apple juice may be useful for a cold quinoa salad, a nice accompaniment to tuna? I do enjoy tuna melts with granny smith apple and cheese. Ah, something else to try.
