Varieties

Buckwheat groats (the hulled kernels) are pale tan and green, and have a milder flavour. Kasha, or roasted buckwheat groats, has a deep brown colour and a toastier, nuttier flavour. Buckwheat is available in grits and flour, and is used in pancakes, biscuits, breads, and other baked goods.
