What Is Organic Buckwheat Flour?

This grain played an important part as a food staple in many cultures around Asia. Today it’s popular all over the world due to its great flavor and high nutritional content.

Types of Organic Buckwheat Flour

There are several types of buckwheat flour available in stores and each has its pros and cons:

·Organic whole grain buckwheat flour is highly nutritious, but it also makes the dough ‘heavier’. This makes your baked goods or pancakes as bit chewier.

·Organic sprouted buckwheat flour has more of some nutrients because sprouting ‘unlocks them in the seed. However, it loses some of the important elements in the process of drying. It’s also more expensive because it’s harder to produce.

·Light buckwheat flour, also known as white buckwheat flour, is produced using hulled seeds. Therefore, it’s less nutritious than the whole grain variety. If the product is bleached artificially, it might contain potentially toxic chemicals.

Is Organic Buckwheat Flour Gluten-Free?

Organic buckwheat flour is naturally gluten-free and therefore safe for people suffering from any form of sensitivity to this protein. However, it’s not a common ingredient in gluten-free baking mixes. The reason for this is that buckwheat has a rich natural flavor.
