Combination of cauliflower and black Quinoa




Both Quinoa and cauliflower are cooked in a short time; it is a simple combination to make.

To prepare Quinoa quickly:

  • Place the measure of Quinoa in a bowl with water for two minutes; strain water. Then, put the measure of Quinoa in a saucepan and add two of parts of water with a pinch of salt (to taste). When it comes to a boil, reduce the heat and let it simmer.
    After about 15 minutes, each grain of Quinoa doubles its volume and also releases its white germ, easy to see with black Quinoa. With a fork, the same as with the couscous, we separate the grains so that they will be looser at serving time.   

Meanwhile, steam the cauliflower in another saucepan. Before serving, pour a drizzle of extra virgin olive oil over the dish, if desired. Garnish the dish with a drizzle of extra virgin olive oil, if desired.

I use the black Quinoa for its color and so that it highlights visually in the vegetable cream soups but, above all, so that the dish will have a high nutritional value like in the Cream of zucchini soup.
