Buckwheat (hulled, organic)
Organic Buckwheat groats have gained popularity because despite their name they are wheat free and naturally contain no gluten. They can be used like a grain but are actually a seed. Similarly to quinoa and amaranth, buckwheat is referred to as a ‘pseudo-cereal’ or ‘pseudo-grain’ as it is a seed that can be used like a grain. A heavyweight in nutrition, each tiny seed is packed with beneficial antioxidants, essential amino acids, complex carbohydrates, fibre and other nutrients.
Originating thousands of years ago in China, buckwheat has been a part of the diets of many Asian and European cultures for many years. It is used to make Japan's beloved soba noodles, delicious gallettes in France and blinis in Russia.
