Question: how much water for two cups of quinoa?
Answer: Here's a basic method to cook 2 cups of dried quinoa, which will end up making about 4 cups once cooked. In a 2-quart pan or larger (4-quart would be ideal), bring 2.5 cups of water to boil. Add the 2 cups of quinoa and reduce the heat to a low simmer. Cover the pan and cook for 10-15 minutes.
