Whole brown toasted buckwheat is a nutritional powerhouse and is not only great for your health, but also a nice complement to your cereal. Oprah calls buckwheat a Super Food! It is high in potassium and phosphorous and contains 50% more vitamin B than wheat. Buckwheat has the highest source of biological protein in the plant kingdom. It has over 90% of the protein value of milk solids and 80% of whole egg solids.
This buckwheat is hulled and natural. Interestingly, despite its name, buckwheat is not a member of the wheat family and is botanically speaking a fruit!
How to Cook Buckwheat

In the microwave: Boil 1 cup of water (high for 1 1/2 minutes) Add 1 tsp butter, 1/2 tsp salt, 1/8 tsp pepper, and 1/4 cup Buckwheat. Heat on high for 45 seconds.

this is my first time trying buckwheat. I just cooked & tried it for breakfast with a little maple syrup. It has a nutty taste and is very filling. I'll be looking for other recipes.
