Are you rinsing it very, very thoroughly before cooking??? Probably not the grain to eat during a water shortage, because you really have to run a lot of water through it to get the saponins off, not like rinsing rice.

I agree it's too sweet for a lot of recipes, but it works really well in the bean salad, and also in lentil soup.
