Bob's Red Mill Organic Gluten Free Buckwheat Groats, 16 Ounce (Pack of 4);

Bob's Red Mill Organic Buckwheat Groats are neither related to wheat nor are they a grain at all! Buckwheat is actually a plant related to rhubarb and its groats are actually a gluten free seed. This fun "grain" is shaped like a pyramid and is a complete protein, containing all 9 of the essential amino acids. It can be steamed, toasted (check out instructions on back of the bag!), roasted, ground into flour, or boiled. Try Buckwheat Groats in any recipe that calls for whole grains: pilafs, salads, casseroles, soups, granolas, stews, or as a cereal on its own. Buckwheat groats are also the key ingredient in traditional Eastern European dishes like Kasha Varnishkes and Potato Knishes. Cooks in only 10 minutes! Like all of our gluten free-labeled products, this product is processed in a dedicated gluten free facility and is R5-ELISA tested to confirm its gluten free status. Certified Organic by QAI.
