What is Buckwheat

Despite the name, buckwheat is not related to wheat nor is it a grass, it is in fact closely related to rhubarb and sorrel. The name 'buckwheat' or 'beech wheat' comes from its triangular seeds, which resemble the much larger seeds of the beech nut from the beech tree, and the fact that it is used like wheat. It is one of the most versatile gluten free grains central to many international recipes from Japanese soba noodles, Eastern European Kasha to French galettes and has been used for centuries across the world as a staple food.

Great!

It's very tasty, I prefer this to the chickpea one as the texture is more similar to normal pasta. Would recommend.

Great, nutritious pasta!

This pasta has quickly become my staple diet! It’s made of soba (buckwheat) - ie healthy, nutritious and non-grain - is ready in 8 min, has lovely texture just like the best durum semolina pasta, filling and tasty. I eat with ready made pasta sauce, and drizzle extra virgin olive oil over it! Scrumptious!
