I am going to disagree with every bag/box of quinoa on the market right now and tell you that the IDEAL ratio of water to quinoa is NOT 1:2, 1 part quinoa to 2 parts water. This ratio has always produced soggy overcooked quinoa for me, not ideal. MY ideal ratio suggestion is 1 part quinoa to 1.75 parts water. I reduce the water by 1/4 cup and find it works perfectly!
