About

Buckwheat groats are the small angular seeds of the buckwheat plant. Often mistaken for a cereal grain, this cousin of rhubarb isn't actually related to wheat. The word "groats'' refers to seeds that have been dehulled; Typically, groats are more easily digested than whole seeds. Native to Asia and later introduced to Europe, the buckwheat plant has been an important food source since the 6th century BC. When it took hold in Southeast Asia before spreading to Central Asia, the Middle East and finally Europe. Buckwheat found its way to the New World through European explorers and colonists, and now this hardy herb grows on almost every continent where Russia and China are leaders in production.

Buckwheat groats are the whole, husked form of buckwheat. They are perfect for use in salads, stuffing and pilafs. Perhaps the most well-known method of preparing buckwheat groats is in the form of porridge. Called "kasha" by Russian and Polish peasants who brought it to the United States, the dish was served with pasta or used as a dough and blintze filling. Buckwheat contains higher levels of the essential minerals copper, iron, zinc, potassium and manganese than any other cereal grain.
