Legurme buckwheat 500g
Buckwheat is a healthy, gluten-free seed with a nutty, toasty flavor and soft texture. Often times its name “buckwheat” is a little confusing and included in the list of grains, but it is not related to wheat and it is not a grain. It’s just as simple to prepare as White Rice, but considered as one of the healthiest meals. If you are trying to avoid gluten and eat gluten free, buckwheat is perfect for you!
Rich in fiber and several minerals, high levels of rutin, may help lower cholesterol levels and keep blood sugar levels in check.
How to cook buckwheat:
- Rinse well through a sieve until the water runs clear.
- Toast in a dry frying pan for 2-3 mins until nutty and fragrant (this adds a roasted flavor to the buckwheat, but you don't have to toast it).
- Simmer in boiling water for 5-10 mins until the grains are tender but still have a little bite.
- Drain well.
