Buckwheat flakes have a mild and almost nutty flavour. Use as a flaked ingredient in a balanced diet or use as a soaked ingredient in porridge type meals.

Buckwheat flakes are not actually a form of wheat, although the name may be deceiving. They are part of the cereal family and contain no gluten.

These flakes can be used in the same way as other cereal flakes and will provide a similar texture to porridge oats. There is no need to cook buckwheat before using.
