Raw Buckwheat Grain

Centaur Raw Buckwheat Grain 1kg is a versatile whole grain ingredient valued for its mild, nutty flavour and satisfying texture. Despite its name, buckwheat is not related to wheat and cooks into tender grains with a gentle bite, making it suitable for both savoury and sweet dishes. When simmered, it absorbs flavours well and works as a hearty base for everyday meals, while toasted buckwheat develops a deeper, more robust taste. This raw buckwheat grain is ideal for cooks looking to add variety to their cupboards, whether for simple midweek meals or more considered recipes inspired by Eastern European and modern whole grain cooking.

Key Features:

  • 1kg pack suitable for regular home use.
  • Whole raw buckwheat grains with a natural, nutty character.
  • Cooks into tender grains with a light, pleasant texture.
  • Well suited to boiling, toasting or incorporating into mixed dishes.

Recipe Inspiration:

  • Cook and serve as an alternative to rice or couscous with roasted vegetables and herbs.
  • Use as a base for warm grain salads with greens, citrus and simple dressings.
  • Toast lightly before cooking to add depth to pilafs or stuffed vegetables.
  • Incorporate into soups or broths to add texture and gentle nuttiness.

How long does raw buckwheat take to cook?

Raw buckwheat typically cooks in around 10 to 15 minutes once simmering, making it a quick option for meals that need a hearty grain without long cooking times.

Can buckwheat be eaten cold once cooked?

Yes, cooked buckwheat works well cold and is often used in salads, where its texture holds up nicely when mixed with dressings and other ingredients.
