- Extra virgin olive oil 20 ml
- Salt to taste

Instructions
Steps:
- Pour the quinoa in a strainer and wash it under running waterfor 1 minute. This step is very important otherwise the quinoa would taste bitter.
- Put the quinoa in a saucepan and pour the water. Add a little salt, cover with a lid and bring to boil over a low heat. Let simmer until the water is completely absorbed. Turn off the heat and let cool completely. Pour the olive oil, stir and set aside.
- Put in a bowl the asparagus chicory, the ginger, the sliced strawberries, tomatoes and radishes. Add the quinoa and mix. Serve your spring quinoa salad with a sprinkle of black sesame seeds.
