Gluten-Free Roasted Buckwheat Flour 500 g: Characteristics and Uses

Roasted buckwheat flour is produced by roasting buckwheat kernels under controlled heat and then milling them. Roasting develops a deeper colour and a pronounced toasted, nutty flavour compared with raw buckwheat flour.

Despite its name, buckwheat is not wheat; botanically it is a pseudocereal. The flour can be used in gluten-free bread, crepes, pancakes, crackers, cookies and noodle-style products. Its flavour is stronger than raw buckwheat, so the proportion can be adjusted according to the desired colour and aroma.

How to Use

Use on its own where a strong buckwheat character is desired, or blend with other gluten-free flours for a milder flavour and lighter texture. Hydration may need adjustment depending on the recipe.

Storage

Keep tightly closed in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and strong odours.
