In order for this popular side dish to surprise you with its quality and taste, it is important to follow certain rules.
Also, don't forget about unexpected tricks that sometimes lead to very impressive results.
For example, experienced housewives sometimes add soda during the cooking process of buckwheat.
Why introduce this component?
As it turns out, soda has many abilities, so it is worth dwelling on them in more detail. First of all, it is worth noting that thanks to soda, you can remove all the garbage without careful preliminary processing: it floats up almost instantly when the ingredient is introduced.
The hostess will only have to remove the resulting garbage.
It is worth considering that soda also helps to eliminate the specific smell that inevitably accompanies the preparation of buckwheat.
Buckwheat porridge prepared with soda almost always has an airy consistency. Also, the dish does not burn.
Another benefit of soda that can be mentioned is that its use helps to reduce the use of salt by half.
How to add soda correctly
First, we lightly pour cold water over the cereal to remove dust and large particles of debris. Then we pour water over the buckwheat and add salt.
After the buckwheat grains start to grow larger, you can add soda. You won't need much of the product - just a pinch. At this point, it's best not to move away from the stove, as the debris will start to float up.
