Buckwheat groats

Buckwheat is 100% gluten-free - ideal for coeliacs, diabetics and everyone :)

Buckwheat is not actually a grain at all! Buckwheat is the seed of a flowering annual plant, and is called a pseudocereal. Its hulled seeds are grain-like, each having a 3-sided distinctive triangular appearance with pointed corners. Buckwheat not related to wheat at all, despite the name! Buckwheat has the botanical name Fagopyrum esculentum. It is often grown as a good cover crop. Buckwheat is gluten-free and the groats we use at Organic Flour Mills are always organic. We pack our buckwheat groats in our gluten-free millroom, to avoid any cross-contamination with gluten. And we are hoping to source locally grown NZ buckwheat next season!

How to Use Buckwheat?

Buckwheat comes to you hulled into buckwheat groats, and can then be sprouted, or it can be soaked and dehydrated in the sun or on low heat into bukinis. Great for coeliacs or anyone!
Buckwheat is good to eat and healthy when soaked and eaten raw, (eg: sprinkled on your breakfast), or milled into flour.

What's in Buckwheat that makes it so healthy?

Buckwheat is totally gluten-free and is high in fibre, B vitamins, and some of the essential minerals. Buckwheat is also a complete protein containing all 9 amino acids (just like our quinoa) and is very low in fats, as well as having a low GI (Glycemic Index) which enables it to be used to control blood sugar, making it popular with diabetics. Buckwheat is a healthy addition to any diet, whether you are coeliac, gluten-free, or not.
