It generally doesn't have a lot of taste like most grains. The main problem most run into with quinoa is not prewashing it. This can lead to a bitter taste. That being said, a lot of the boxed quinoa is advertised as prewashed, but I wash it anyway. To bring out the natural nuttiness of the grain, you can also toast it slightly before cooking.
