In cold or boiling water: this is what kind of water you need to pour buckwheat into to make the porridge crumbly

Do you like crumbly buckwheat porridge, but it always ends up as a mush?

It is possible that you are making a major mistake when preparing the side dish.

What kind of water do you pour the cereal into - cold or boiling?

If you are a supporter of the first approach, then you should know: it is precisely this approach that prevents buckwheat from becoming crumbly.

In order for the dish to have the desired consistency, the cereal must be in boiling water.

This point was noted by the expert of the online publication Belnovosti in the field of cooking, chef, fourth-class baker Yulia Arkhipova.

How to start cooking buckwheat correctly

Place a pot of water on the stove and turn on the heat.

Don't rush to pour buckwheat into the bowl!

First, wait until the liquid in the container begins to bubble.

As soon as the desired process begins, pour buckwheat into the water.

With this approach, the cereal will not stick together: the porridge will become crumbly.

There is another interesting recommendation: before cooking, the cereal should be fried.

Thanks to this “processing”, the taste of the product will be well revealed: the side dish will turn out incredibly appetizing.

Important: if you like the softest buckwheat porridge, distinguished by its homogeneity, then you do not need to fry the product and pour it into boiling water. To get such a dish, the cereal must be poured into cold water.
