What Makes It Special
Our 100% raw, organic sprouted buckwheat flour is nutrient-dense and packed with manganese, copper, phosphorus, and magnesium, supporting bone and cardiovascular health. Whole grains like buckwheat help lower LDL cholesterol while providing fiber, protein, and a wide range of antioxidants. The Better Than Roasted (BTR) sprouting process maximizes nutrient bioavailability, removes bitterness, and concentrates flavor, resulting in a sweeter, more digestible, and flavorful flour.
Nutrient Benefits
Buckwheat contains unique compounds rarely found in other grains. Tannins (also found in tea and wine) may help fight viral infections, while lignans and flavonoids have been linked to cancer and heart disease protection. Buckwheat is rich in “bound” antioxidants, which are activated by gut bacteria and continue working in the body longer than other antioxidants.
How to Enjoy
Buckwheat flour’s distinctive nutty flavor is enjoyed globally in dishes such as French crepes, Russian blini, Indian pakora, and Japanese soba noodles. In the Blue Ridge Mountains, home cooks ferment buckwheat batter for crisp, satisfying cakes. It’s also perfect for gluten-free muffins, waffles, breads, crackers, cookies, and raw treats. Our stone-grinding process gently mills the soaked, sprouted buckwheat at low temperatures to preserve sensitive vitamins and nutrients, just like traditional flour-making.
Fun Fact
Despite its name, buckwheat is not a true grain. It’s more closely related to rhubarb than to wheat, and the groat we grind into flour is actually its fruit.
Storage
Shelf life: Up to one year if properly stored.
Store in a cool, dry, dark place. Refrigerate or freeze sprouted flours to extend freshness.
