Food to LiveOrganic Buckwheat Groats, 5 Pounds – Whole Grain Buckwheat Seeds by Food to Live. Hulled, Non-GMO, Kosher, Raw, Vegan, Sirtfood. Buckwheat Cereal in Bulk

Food to Live is consistently high quality. I've been eating this Kasha for years, not the cheapest around but certainly right up there in the quality category with all their products.Highly recommended.

The bag was packed well such that there were no rips and no broken seeds. First cup of seeds after being cooked tasted fresh and evenly cooked.

I love this stuff. It's the first buckwheat I tried and I'm neurotic about spending money based on hearsay, but the reviews were good enough to get me to buy some and I havent regreted it.I thought I had screwed up because I first tried it straight boiled in unsalted water, which I don't recommend, but Ive come to find that it's rediculously versitile. So far my favorite way to prepare it is toasting under a broiler, stirred by a long metal spatula.I think it's called Kasha at that point and I'm perfectly happy muching on it just like that. If it's well toasted it has the interesting effect of heating up palpably if you chew it correctly and giving the sensation of a warm meal so it's a favored snack of mine.For general consumtion nowadays I just use my old hand crank processor to grind the toasted buckwheat into a rough meal, which can be used just like oat meal with the caveats that it takes a little longer to thicken, it smells and tastes better (if you dig earthy flavors like me), and it has a much more complete and balanced nutrient profile.

Most people think buckwheat is a grain because of the way it cooks and is related to wheat because of its name. Well, it’s neither. It’s actually a pseudocereal, to which Quinoa, Amaranth, and Wild Rice also fall into, which are seeds that cook like grains. Why explain this? Because of nutrition. First off, because it’s not a type of wheatgrass, it’s gluten-free. Secondly, it’s one of few vegan sources that is a complete protein, or containing all 9 essential amino acids that your body can't otherwise produce on its own. It is also a great source for dietary fiber, which your gut microbiome will thank you for consuming. Finally, it is packed with lots of vitamins and minerals.In terms of consumption, buckwheat has a hearty, nutty texture. My favorite use is in porridge (think oatmeal but with buckwheat), cooked on high pressure for 6 mins in my Instant Pot pressure cooker with 1.75C full-fat coconut cream and 1/2t salt. Adding in raisins, pecans, and some cinnamon makes a really delicious, naturally sweetened, and very filling breakfast. It makes a nice filler for recipes as well, especially if you are following a Whole-Food Plant-Based (WFPB) diet, since it is a complete protein. It works well in savory dishes like curries, a vegan shepherd's pie, or any kind of casserole dish too.P.S. This is my honest review about buckwheat because I like it so much. I am not affiliated with nor have received this product for free.

I love it and will order it again!

The package arrived damaged and when I took it out from the box, the buckwheat got spilled Ll over the floor. Haven’t tried the product yet but Ive heard it was good.

I make Blueberry buckwheat pancakes that are delicious.

They contaminated baby formula in the past- this is from China.

We like this buckwheat- clean And fresh!
