Dutch term or phrase: losroeren
Hello!

I am translating some kitchen recipes and I am not quite sure of all connotations of the verb "losroeren". More than a translation equivalent, I would need to know what exactly this step stands for. Here some context:

Laat koken tot de bouillon geabsorbeerd is.
Roer het geheel even los.
Haal vervolgens de quinoa van het vuur.

Thank you very much in advance!

fluff
Explanation:
Check out any recipe on how to cook quinoa, e.g. https://www.thekitchn.com/how-to-cook-quinoa-cooking-lessons... After the water has been absorbed, you fluff with a fork to separate the grains, though it's usual to leave it off the heat covered for about five minutes before fluffing.
