Buckwheat groats niEPAlona 1000g - VIVIO

Buckwheat is a very valuable product that should be included in our diet as often as possible. The literature emphasizes that buckwheat for cereals has a particularly high protein content. The groats even contain 13-14 g of vegetable proteins. It is worth paying attention to the fact that buckwheat has a very balanced amino acid composition. It's even rich in sulphurous amino acids, which are scarce in most legumes. Studies have shown that buckwheat protein extracts can lower cholesterol levels. This fact can be extremely important in the prevention of atherosclerosis and other cardiovascular diseases.
Starch, the main complex carbohydrate in our diet, makes up the largest part of the chemical composition of buckwheat grains. It is a valuable supplier of energy which, thanks to the high fiber content, guarantees a long-lasting feeling of satiety. As numerous studies show, fiber also plays an important role in regulating the functioning of the digestive system. It slows down the absorption of simple sugars in the gut, preventing a sudden spike in blood sugar levels. It also stimulates intestinal peristalsis, prevents constipation and diarrhea and influences the regulation of lipid metabolism.
Roasted buckwheat can also be a valuable source of mineral salts. The literature states that it contains large amounts of copper, manganese and magnesium. These ingredients have an effect, among other things, on the proper functioning of muscles and the circulatory system. It also contains significant amounts of phosphorus, zinc, selenium and iron.

APPLICATION
Unroasted buckwheat takes a little longer to cook than roasted buckwheat. It is best to cook it in a ratio of 1: 2 (one glass of porridge to two glasses of water). Sprinkle the groats with cold water, bring to a boil, and cook, covered, until the grains have absorbed all the water. Instead of water, you can use milk, broth or mushroom broth. We can also prepare white buckwheat without cooking. Simply pour lukewarm water over it, add lemon juice and leave covered overnight. In the morning, rinse the groats in a colander. This process should be repeated until the groats stop foaming. After draining, it is suitable for immediate consumption. In this form, it is an ideal base for a light dessert or a nutritious breakfast with yoghurt and fresh fruit.
Due to its delicate taste, unroasted groats can be an addition to both savory and sweet dishes. It goes perfectly with different types of vegetables and can be a perfect addition to a vegetarian diet. You can also use it for meat as an alternative to rice, potatoes or pasta. White porridge can also be the basis of a healthy dessert. It tastes great with milk, yoghurt and fresh or dried fruit. It is also a good idea for a nutritious and valuable breakfast.
