Despite its name, Buckwheat is not a variety of wheat – or even a grain. Buckwheat is botanically a fruit seed related to sorrel and rhubarb. This certified Organic Buckwheat Flour has no added preservatives and is non-GMO. The whole buckwheat kernel is milled for this flour; only the inedible outer husk is sifted off. Organic Buckwheat Flour has a fresh, subtle aroma, a rich nutty flavour and a natural, light brown colour. This versatile flour is a delicious choice when wheat-free flour is needed. However, it can be used in any recipe and is great for baking and making pasta.

How to Use:

Buckwheat flour is a great grain-free flour suitable for all your baking needs. Buckwheat flour is a little denser than some other whole flours. When using Buckwheat flour in bread dough, it is best to mix it half-half with another flour to ensure proper proving and rising. For a delicious wheat-free loaf, try combining 3 parts buckwheat with 2 of quinoa and 1 part brown rice flour. Buckwheat also makes a great sourdough.

Organic Buckwheat flour is deliciously suitable for pizza bases, home-made pasta and traditional Japanese Soba noodles. Or create yummy pancakes – great with banana and maple syrup; scrumptious biscuits and muffins; and hearty pie crusts.
