Cooking grain is very simple. Although it may take a little time to soften the hard kernels into a soft edible texture, there are only a few simple steps. 

Cooked grain:

1. Rinse the grain before cooking.

2. Cover generously with water, add a pinch of salt to taste (optional), bring to boil and simmer for about 45 minutes until soft. OR to speed up the process you can pre-soak the grain for a about 4-5 hours or overnight and then boil & simmer till soft, about 20 minutes.

3. This cooked grain will be ready to use as an alternative to rice or to sprinkle on salads.

4. Cooked grain can store up to a week when kept in an airtight container in the fridge. This is handy if you want to use the grain for breakfast recipes. It would save time in the morning.
