BUCKWHEAT FLOUR
The finely nutty and slightly beechnut-flavoured flour is ideal for pancakes. Since buckwheat lacks gluten, it is usually mixed with other types of flour for baking . Ground nuts, such as almonds, also serve this purpose.

Peeled and then crushed buckwheat grains are offered under this name. The taste (more intense than that of flour) goes well with both spicy and sweet dishes. The groats are cooked either in salt water or milk .
