Despite its name, Buckwheat is not a wheat (grass family) or cereal but a seed from a flowering plant related to Rhubarb. Buckwheat is an important source of high-quality gluten-free vegetable protein which contains all eight essential amino acids as well as Alpha-Linolenic Acid, which is one of the two essential fatty acids.
Ingredients: Organic buckwheat
Preparation: To cook, do not presoak - just rinse first and then bring three parts water to one part kernels to a boil, add buckwheat kernels and simmer 10-15 minutes or until at desired texture. Drain in a colander or let extra moisture steam off.
