Preparation
To prepare the Quinoa Salad, start by rinsing 320 g of quinoa very well under running water, in order to eliminate all traces of saponin, a bitter substance present on the outer covering of the seed.
Once rinsed and drained, put it to cook in a pan filled with slightly salted boiling water for about 15 minutes, then drain it and let it cool completely.
While the quinoa cools down, put in a large bowl the Crunchy Ortolana (sweet sour or in sweet sour in Oil) together with 8 cherry tomatoes previously washed and cut into wedges.
Also add 250g of chickpeas, a clove of garlic cut in half and 100g of crumbled feta, and as soon as the quinoa is cold, add it to the rest of the ingredients.
Dress your quinoa and chickpea and crunchy salad with a drizzle of oil, a pinch of salt and mix well, then garnish it with a few leaves of fresh basil and let it rest for 10-15 minutes before serving.
Enjoy your meal!
