Useful tips
When choosing cereals, you need to pay attention to the color. Buckwheat should be a good gray-brown color. If it is light, it means that the cereal has lost 30-40%.
After cooking, you can pour hot broth over the buckwheat, for example, fish or meat (depending on what you are going to serve it with). After that, cover the garnish and let it sit for about 10 minutes. You will get very tasty, aromatic and crumbly buckwheat.
