#DailyDigest from #CooksIllustrated: Quinoa Salad with Red Bell Pepper and Cilantro. For our #quinoa salad #recipe, we rinsed the grain to remove its bitter protective layer, and then toasted it to bring out its flavor before adding liquid to the pan. Spreading the cooked quinoa over a rimmed baking sheet to cool produced the fluffiest grains for our quinoa salad recipe.
