Yields
30 4-inch pancakes. This is a highly nutritious, protein, vitamin and mineral laced version of the traditional empty pankake. Use grade B maple syrup for a more nutient packed breakfast. It will keep you going till noon.
Put
the quinoa into a fine strainer, and run water through it until the water is clear
and no longer sudsy. If you don't have a fine strainer, rinse the quinoa in a
bowl filled with water, and then pour it through a clean dishtowel.
In
a 2-quart pot, bring the water to a boil. Stir in the wet quinoa and simmer over
low medium heat uncovered until done, about 12 minutes for white, or 15 minutes
for black. Quinoa is fully cooked when the germ has separated from the grain.
It looks like a small white "C" shape surrounding each grain. If any
excess liquid remains, pour it off and raise the heat to quickly boil off the
rest. Stir in the salt.
Beat
eggs well. Add remaining ingredients and beat. Fry on hot griddle.
