I’ve hit a mental block with healthy cooking but have found some buckwheat in my cupboard. Could you please share your recipes to give me some inspiration?

  1. I have it soaked overnight, cold and uncooked, like a breakfast cereal. I just soak it in a bowl of water, then rinse it through a fine-mesh strainer in the morning.

    Things to have with it: berries, ground flax seed, yogurt, pumpkin seeds, pecans, cocoa powder.

    I’m from Eastern Europe. We don’t eat it green, we buy roasted buckwheat and then boil it and eat it plain or with fermented vegetables.

    With ginger and baked vegetables and beans.

    i use the pre-roasted buckwheat, toast it on a dry frying pan on low heat for 5-10 minutes. then let it cool for storage! it makes a nice crispy addition to anything like oatmeal, chia pudding or salads. i’ve been eating on chia pudding the last few days – it’s so good!

    I cook it whole with my steel cut oatmeal. Adds a lovely “crust” flavor to my apple pie recipe”!

    It’s better roasted.
    I love with with fried onions and mushrooms, my favourite buckwheat combo. Gonna make myself some now

    buckwheat porridge, served hot with a nub of “butter” and honey on top (which melts into the porridge) + and served with cold milk splashed over it + cinnamon
