How to cook buckwheat properly so that it is aromatic and crumbly: culinary tricks
Buckwheat is a universal side dish that goes well with meat and fish.
But not everyone can boast that they can always cook crumbly and aromatic buckwheat.
If the mass on your plate is not the most appetizing, it means that mistakes were made during the cooking process.
If you want to get a really great side dish, you should take into account some nuances.
How to cook buckwheat
First, the cereal must be thoroughly washed.
Then the grains should be dried in a dry and hot frying pan.
You should keep buckwheat in the pan for no more than 3 minutes to allow its aroma to develop.
After this, you can proceed to cooking.
It is important to calculate the amount of water correctly. For a glass of buckwheat you need to take 2 glasses of water.
The cereal is cooked for about 15 minutes. There is no need to stir the porridge.
You can easily check if it is ready by running a spoon along the bottom. If there is no water there, you can turn off the heat.
It is acceptable to remove the pan from the heat a few minutes earlier. In this case, the porridge should be left to sit under the lid for another 10-15 minutes so that the grains absorb the remaining liquid.
