    Quinoa

    I know this quinoa is an old post, but I have a recipe for quinoa burgers.It is simple. Okay not that simple. I do a lot of meatless cooking, my clientel is comprised of vegans and it is challenging. I make vegetable stock almost every day. I use this stock as the base for a lot of things. I use red quinoa and cook it in the stock instead of water. I use a cup of dry quinoa. Since the soup was made with potatoes, clelry, parsnip, onion, garlic and whatever else sounds good, I save the vegies and make a patty, combining the quinoa. I use potato starch, bread crumbs, or flour (not a lot) to bind it together and then saute the patties in a little oil. The trick is use a medium heat, and not touch the burgers for 5 MINUTES. This insures that the patties will not fall apart. Then saute on the other side. When I make the patties, I usually add spices, like garlic poweder, onion poweder, whatever the mood. Because the patties are savory, I put a little apricot jam on the side. Everyone loves it.
  2. I have a few questions. How did you prepare the pan? Did you use cupcake holders, etc? I find that if I use too much pan spray or "grease" my products come out sticky on the bottom. If the cake or muffin is just a bit underbaked the bottom might be sticky. I also freeze quite a bit. I let the baked good cool down, wrap well in plastic wrap and put in the freezer. When defrosting, I leave the wrapping in place. The baked good will stay moist.
