Recipe's preparation

Weigh uncooked quinoa into Thermomix bowl. Add 1500g filtered water to soak uncooked quinoa for minimum of 1 hour or up to overnight. (Alternatively use another 2L jug or large bowl if you want to use your TM bowl for something else).

Drain using a fine mesh sieve (steaming basket holes are too large). Return the quinoa to the TM bowl. Refill bowl with additional 1500g water and drain again. Then rinse thoroughly through the sieve. Rinse remaining quinoa in TM bowl out into sieve.

Use enough baking paper to line the bottom of the Varoma Steaming Bowl and rinse this under water, crinkle up and lay out in bowl.

Add quinoa to top of wet baking paper.

Add 400g of water to TM bowl for steaming.

Steam for 20 minutes / Varoma / speed 1. Test quinoa and steam for longer if needed, this will depend on how long it soaked for.

Thermomix Model

Recipe is created for
TM 5

If you are using a Thermomix® TM6 measuring cup with your Thermomix® TM5:
For cooking (simmering) at temperatures of 95°C or above (200°F), the simmering basket should always be used instead of the TM6 measuring cup, as the TM6 measuring cup fits tightly in the lid. The simmering basket rests loosely on top, is steam-permeable, and also prevents food spatter from the mixing bowl.

Please note that the TM5 mixing bowl has a larger capacity than the TM31 (capacity of 2.2 liters instead of 2.0 liters for TM 31). Recipes for the Thermomix TM5 may not be cooked with a Thermomix TM31 for safety reasons without adjusting the quantities. Risk of scalding by spraying of hot liquids: Do not exceed the maximum filling quantity and observe the filling level markings of the mixing bowl!
