Buckwheat, Cooked (Groats)

Buckwheat, Cooked (Groats) is a gluten-free pseudo-cereal commonly used in Eastern European, Russian and East Asian cuisines (think buckwheat groats and soba). It’s known for a nutty flavor and hearty texture that works in porridges, pilafs and salads. Nutritionally, Buckwheat, Cooked (Groats) is a low-fat, plant-based source of carbohydrate and protein, providing about 3.4g of protein per 100g; it also offers modest fiber and several minerals such as magnesium, manganese and copper. Because it’s gluten-free and cooks relatively quickly compared with some whole grains, it’s often used as a nutritious alternative to rice or wheat. From a health perspective, buckwheat is nutrient-dense and filling, with a favorable amino-acid profile for a plant food and a low saturated-fat content. It also contains polyphenols and other antioxidants that may contribute to its protective effects.Read more
