What it is
Buckwheat is not a type of wheat, but rather a fruit grown for its grain-like seeds. The seeds are ground into a flour that is naturally gluten-free. It is used in a variety of baked goods and other dishes.
Why it's used
Buckwheat flour is used as a gluten-free alternative to wheat flour in baking. It can be found in breads, pancakes, cookies, and noodles. Its earthy flavor and nutritional profile make it a popular choice for health-conscious consumers.
Health notes
Buckwheat flour is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA for use in food. It is a good source of fiber and minerals. JECFA has evaluated buckwheat and found no safety concerns. Research suggests buckwheat may have benefits for blood sugar control, but more studies are needed.
Allergen info
Buckwheat is not one of the nine major allergens recognized by the FDA. It is naturally gluten-free, making it suitable for individuals with celiac disease or gluten sensitivity.
