Buckwheat is a gluten-free, nutrient-dense grain-like seed that is highly regarded for its health benefits. Despite its name, it is not related to wheat and is instead a seed of the buckwheat plant. It is commonly used in baking, cooking, and as a base for flour or pasta. Buckwheat has a nutty, earthy flavor and is a rich source of protein, fiber, and essential minerals.
