Shiloh Farms - Organic Buckwheat Groats - 32 oz.

- SHILOH FARMS Buckwheat Groats are light in color with a distinctive triangular shape and a mild, nutty flavor. Rich in fiber, protein, and complex carbohydrates, buckwheat is also an excellent source of vitamins and minerals, particularly magnesium, copper, phosphorus, and B Vitamins. - Technically the hulled seeds of the buckwheat plant, buckwheat is a pseudocereal with many grain-like properties. First cultivated over 8,000 years ago in Southeast Asia, it was one of the first crops introduced to North America by early European settlers and remains a culinary staple in Eastern Europe and the Balkans. - Despite its name, buckwheat contains no wheat or gluten and is actually a common ingredient in many gluten free recipes. - Suggestions: 1. Dress up cooked groats with lots of browned onions and a bit of parsley or dill. 2. Add to soups, stews, casseroles, or whole grain pilafs. 3. Mix with vegetables and herbs for a hearty filling for stuffed peppers or stuffed cabbage. 4. Use groats as a substitute for rice or bulgur. 5. Cook in milk or fruit juice for a tasty hot cereal. Finish with your choice of sweeteners, dried fruits, or nuts. - Certified Organic, Kosher and Non-GMO
