Description
Buckwheat oatmeal is produced by steaming and pressing buckwheat groats. Because they have been heat-treated, they do not need any or almost no treatment over the raw grain.
The buckwheat is known in Europe from the 12th century. It spread here from Russia, where it was brought from Southeast Asia. Over the centuries, buckwheat was one of the most commonly consumed foods before being replaced by wheat, rye and rice in the 18th century. From the botanical point of view, it does not belong to the grass, but it is related to such crops as rhubarb or sorrel. Buckwheat is naturally a gluten-free crop.
