Gremolata is an Italian condiment that’s super simple to put together. A sprinkle of it livens up a soup and enhances the flavor of fish, meat, grilled veggies, or pasta. Here it adds a burst of freshness to quinoa salad. So good and so good for you!

Yields 1/4 cup gremolata or 6-8 servings quinoa

Ingredients

Lemon-Parsley Gremolata

  • 1/2 cup finely chopped fresh parsley (leaves only)

  • 1 clove garlic, crushed or 1 cube Gefen Frozen Garlic

  • zest of 1/2 lemon

  • 1 tablespoon + 1 teaspoon freshly squeezed lemon juice

Quinoa Tabbouleh

  • 1/2 cup red quinoa

  • 1/2 cup white quinoa, such as Beleaves

  • 1 cup fresh parsley, finely chopped

  • handful fresh mint, finely chopped

  • 3 scallions, chopped

  • 1–2 Persian cucumbers, seeded, quartered, and sliced

  • handful red cherry tomatoes, quartered

  • handful yellow cherry tomatoes, quartered

  • 3–4 tablespoons lemon-parsley gremolata

Directions

Prepare the Lemon-Parsley Gremolata

1.

Mix all ingredients in a bowl. Taste and adjust seasoning, adding more lemon or garlic if desired. This gremolata lasts a long time in the fridge.

Prepare the Quinoa Tabbouleh

1.

Rinse quinoa very well. Add it to a pot with two cups water. Bring to a boil, lower the heat, and cook for 15 minutes.

2.

Remove from heat and let it steep a few minutes. Then fluff with a fork.

3.

Place the quinoa in a large bowl. Add herbs and vegetables. Add the gremolata and toss. Taste and add more lemon juice or olive oil, if desired.

4.

Chill for 30 minutes before serving.

Tips:

Cooked quinoa, on its own, can be frozen and used as needed.

Notes:

Whereas the parsley has a robust flavor, the mint adds a cooling, slightly sweet, and balancing aromatic flavor to the tabbouleh. It provides a clean, fresh note to the overall salad profile. Don’t leave it out!
