QUINOA FUNCTION
1. Place quinoa and water inside pot.
2. Measure raw quinoa for desired amount with measuring cup (180 ml)
provided. One cup of uncooked quinoa will make about two cups of quinoa
for a maximum of 12 cups (2.2 L) uncooked quinoa. Add quinoa to inner
pot. NOTE: Wash quinoa in a separate bowl, prior to cooking, if desired. For
softer quinoa, we suggest preparing quinoa and water in the inner pot and
letting soak for 10-20 minutes before cooking.
3. Using measuring cup, add amount of water to quinoa inside inner pot.

water quantity by adding more water if you are using rice cooker at a high altitude.
