13625 toasted buckwheat porridge 20 minutes 15 minutes 2-3 servings Wed Oct 08 23:14:44 -0700 2008 Wed Oct 08 23:18:18 -0700 2008 Easy User http://www.chow.com/recipes/13625 Thu, 09 Oct 2008 06:18:18 GMT i find buckwheat tasty. you can use buckwheat flour in pancakes, by adding it to granola bars, you can even sprout it and eat the greens in your salad.

it’s a gluten-free grain that has been associated with reducing cholesterol, improving circulation, and might even be able to treat type II diabetes.

this is a simple way to cook it up as a hardy breakfast, especially great on those cold foggy mornings.

  • in a large frying pan or skillet toast the buckwheat dry over high heat. after about 5 minutes over heat, with continuously stirring, they should start to turn toasty brown. make sure you get them before they start to burn. (note: if you are using toasted buckwheat you can skip this step.)
  • add the salt to the water and bring to a boil.
  • add the toasted buckwheat and boil on high, while stirring occasionally. cook until all the water has boiled off, which takes about 10 minutes.
  • while still over heat add the earth balance and stir completely in. serve warm.
