You mention buckwheat is a grain, but it isn’t. It’s a seed of a flower that’s related to the rhubarb. Breakfast looks good!
Oh yes, good point. Thanks for the clarification!
but grain IS a seed, isn't it?
Intresting !
My wife is Ukrainian; we eat buckwheat on a regular basis. I noticed that your buckwheat is "green", or raw. We buy buckwheat from international grocers, or the Russian store. Almost all the buckwheat used in Eastern Europe is roasted....it looks more brown in the package.....a little more delicious. Love buckwheat.
I love it as well! And I actually really love it raw! I do like it a bit better than toasted… but both are great. ☺️ Happy to see another buckwheat fan here. 🤗
Another good option for soaking is to add a tablespoon of Kefir. The probiotics do a good job of fermenting the grains making the nutrition more bioavailable.
Great idea! Thank you for sharing that. 🙏🏻🙏🏻
Only If you made it yourself. Bought products do contain almost no living bacteria
Great video! Thank you! For all you buckwheatie fans out there…it’s also a complete protein. Cheers 🎉
😊🙌🏻🙌🏻
I have just bought some buckwheat...thank you for this video. I can wait to get started. I wish you well.
Awesome! Enjoy 😊😊
Love it. Another addiction to my overnight or sometimes sprouted chickpeas I eat as snacks.
🥰🥰
Great idea! I use buckwheat too, but haven’t yet tried the overnight version. Thank you- I just subscribed!
Oh nice! Hope you enjoy it and welcome! 😃😃
Le Pain Des Fleurs Organic Buckwheat Crispbread is my go to for a buckwheat food! Also buckwheat honey.
Hey there! Thank you for sharing your recipe!
I used to do something similar with wheat berries, they would sprout for 2 days before being added to fruit and plant milk… I’m definitely trying this! A word of caution : buckwheat is an allergen, so to those who’ve never had it, try a very small amount first, like half a teaspoon, and wait a few minutes (a friend of mine got a violent - but short - reaction from roasted buckwheat used as garnish in a chia pudding… fortunately it was a very small quantity)
Oh such good idea to sprout them first! I would like to try that as well. 🤗 And great info about buckwheat being allergen! I had no idea! 🤯 Thank you for letting us know. 💕
So you don't cook the buckwheat before eating it?
Thankyou yes that looks great. I love buckwheat groats
You’re welcome! Hope you enjoy it. 🤗🤗
give me that buckwheat..I always pray for healing from SIBO and SIFO. Any good nutrition that I can eat and assimilate is my favorite..Amen
I am healing from SIBO too. What si SIFO?
Buckwheat and white rice are the only grains we can eat 😬
But luckily buckwheat tastes very good.
Would love more ideas for buckwheat!
Thank you! I can't eat oats, they give me killer heartburn, so this is a great alternative.
You’re welcome! You can even use them cooked for any of my other oatmeal recipes on this channel. They’re a great substitute for oats! 😊
@@carltonwillams3962 thank you. I will try toasting them.
@@carltonwillams3962 thank you
@@carltonwillams3962 Never heard of people actually eating raw oats. I boil mine usually with some milk and butter, sometimes with water. But i still get heartburn even with 10 minutes boiling. Should i still try toasting first?
Does the soaking also remove some of the oxalates? Buckwheat is VERY high in oxalates. Last time I tried it my kidneys were hurting for days. Maybe cooking it would remove the oxalates?
Soaking and cooking both help remove oxalates. You can try soaking first overnight and then cooking. 😊 Make sure you discard the soaking water too!
Very pleasantly done.
Thanks!
You’re welcome! 🤗💕🌱
The exact video I wanted to see, Awesome!!! Thank You
Aww so glad to hear that! 🤗🤗
@@LetsEatPlants Thank You for the video and the quick reply, Quick Question - I've seen other videos mention that too much consumption of sprouted buckwheat can create a toxicity to fagopyrins in the buckwheat (causes light sensitivity). I'm looking to replace my daily oatmeal and I'm wondering if you've ever had any issue related to this (you might not eat it that regularly. Thanks Again
@@mattclark6482 I have not, but I also don’t eat it that regularly! Maybe a few times a month at most and then will take a few months off. Not too common of a breakfast here. I haven’t heard of it causing any issues, but couldn’t say for sure. I’d check with a health professional if you’re concerned about it. 😊
Ground flaxserd looses its nutrientritional properties within minutes of being ground. You must grind it immediately before use. If it gets a smell it's gone rancid. And that can happen rather quickly when stored. It smells like linseed oil when it's gone rancid.
I like to store my ground flax in the fridge (and actually I have extra in the freezer too!), but good point about it going rancid easily! I wish I had time to grind it everyday. 🙂🙂
Short and sweet. Thanks!
You’re welcome! 😊
I like to add cinnamon and yogurt, and skip the maple syrup to keep the sugar lower.@@LetsEatPlants
@@garrettmoore1549 Nice! Enjoy 😊
Ooh I love this. Gonna add to my yogurt bowl. 😊
🤗🤗 Sounds delish! Enjoy!
Can you use raw buckwheat groats or are those toasted first? Thank you.
They are raw. Enjoy! 😊
@@LetsEatPlants thank you!!
@@tnijoo5109 You’re welcome!
Can I eat this soaked in coconut milk overnight ? As in no rinsing in the morning. I usually just mix honey and water with my overnight oats and then just stir and eat in the morning. Can I do this with buckwheat?
I think it should be fine! I have read that it is OK not to rinse. 😊
What I would do, personally, is just to rinse the buckwheat with water BEFORE soaking it in coconut milk. So give it a thorough rinse with water (until the water runs clear) and then add your coconut milk and let it soak in that overnight. 🌱 Hope this helps!
@@LetsEatPlants great tips
You must be a busy single like me hahah no time for fancy recipes --we need quick meal ideas that are also healthy
Great Video :) . I have a question, I've never tried buckwheat before, but the kind sold where I live is roasted. Do I still soak it or do I just add my toppings + milk, like cereal?
Hi there! So glad you enjoyed the video. 🤗🤗 I have to say, I'm not as familiar with roasted buckwheat. (I believe it is called kasha here?) But I do believe it still needs to be soaked or cooked before eaten! You may want to double check on the package, if there is any information. 😊 But all the recipes I have seen for kasha require it to be soaked or cooked before eating, same as you would raw buckwheat. Hope this helps!
@@LetsEatPlants thanks 😊🥰
they called it "toasted buckwheat" where I get it. I don't bother soaking it. I just put it in a small bowl, with water and put it in the microwave. It takes a little longer than oatmeal to get soft, maybe seven or eight minutes, but it's really good, not as mussy as oatmeal. I love the toasted kind. Bulgar is also a good substitute for oatmeal. Vegan Power 💪
Okay this is a very dumb question but I accidentally ordered roasted Buckwheat - can I still do this with them?? I wanted the raw ones to make a raw cereal but the roasted ones are like chewing on pebbles lol 🤦🏼♀️🙈
Not a dumb question at all! Someone else actually asked before as well so you are not alone. 😂😂 The only thing is, I'm not as familiar with roasted buckwheat! 🙈 I tried to google if there are recipes for eating it in the same way (just soaking overnight), and I couldn't really find much info. I would say it's worth a try, and if it doesn't seem to be the right consistency after soaking 8-12 hours, then go ahead and cook just it to be sure. (And keep in mind soaking it will reduce the cook time!) Wish I could be of more help, but hope this works!
Unfortunately you cant nancy
@@kaanseker6270 Ok, thanks for letting us know, Kaan!
thanks for this! i can't eat normal oat porridge anymore so this is very helpful :)
So glad you liked it!! 🤗🤗
The buckwheat I just bought is roasted & I've been soaking it for 5 hrs how and
the outer dark skin is coming off as I change out the water. Is that suppose to
happen? I've rinsed it about 4 times and after I refill the bowl with water, more
dark skin keep coming up. When does it stop? Can I still leave it for an overnight
soak? I'm trying to get rid of as many ANTINUTRIENTS as possible bcos of my
health issues.
I wonder if the raw version you show us in this video would be a problem for my
IBS & digestion compared to the roasted I bought? Hmm?
Would you know how long the roasted buckwheat takes to cook if left to soak overnight? Thank You.
Hey there! I’m actually not familiar with the roasted version (I believe it’s called kasha?) so unfortunately I can’t help you much with that one. I do think the raw might be ok with your health issues, but definitely try a very small amount first to test it.
I’d be curious how it goes with the roasted one you bought! Usually with soaked grains it cuts the cooking time in half, if not more!
I was concerned if I could eat Buckwheat Groats RAW, in place of Old fashioned oats. This video answered that question. However, do they get kinda get milky, like oats do??? I'm hoping they do because I don't want to add plant milks. I'm like your husband Q. I don't want excessive salt!! 👍I usually just add like pineapple banana organic raisins walnuts and ginger. Thanks 😊🌟💛💜💙💚
You could definitely experiment with adding just water instead of plant milk! I do feel they get a bit creamy... but definitely not as milky as oats (I usually eat my oats with just water for example, but these I do prefer plant milk). That being said, I think if you added a lot of other items such as those you listed, you might not notice that they're not as milky (especially banana for creaminess!). Let us know if you do try it out! I'm curious about the results myself. 😀😀
@@LetsEatPlants Awesome. I will be trying it this week. Will update you🌱🌱👍
I am liking the Overnight Buckwheat Groats!!!! In water is fine for me. They are delicate and even have a floral scent when you soak them in water. It's a WIN for me!! 👍👏😁🥰🌟🌿🌱💚💜💛❤💙🌾🌾🌾🌾 I take two bananas and a cup of water, blend in blender a few seconds to make banana milk, pour on the Buckwheat Groats and add other ingredients. 😋
Perfect!!! I was thinking banana “‘milk” might work. Great idea. 😁😁😁 So glad you are enjoying! 😊🌱🌱🌱
hi, lovely recipe) thanks
You're welcome! Glad you enjoyed. 😊
Thank you for sharing this 👍 👌 🙏 wonderful recipe 😋 meal idea
You’re welcome! Glad you enjoyed 😊
Can you cover it with saran wrap and put it in the frig, to soak?
Yes you can 😊
@@LetsEatPlants thank you .
Very interesting and easy Thank you 👍
You're welcome! Enjoy 😊😊

Does it taste raw?
And the water looks white after rinsing, like starchy. Is it really low in carb?
It tastes raw maybe a bit from the texture. It's much more crunchy than when cooked. But I prefer it actually! I'm not sure if it's low in carb or if the soaking water gets starchy, but here's what ChatGPT says: "Soaking buckwheat overnight does remove some starch, but the exact amount can vary depending on the soaking time, temperature, and water-to-grain ratio. When grains like buckwheat are soaked, water helps break down the starches, making them easier to digest and lowering their glycemic index. Some of the starch is released into the soaking water and can be rinsed away. There isn’t a precise percentage widely documented for buckwheat starch loss during soaking, but based on similar grains, you can expect a small portion, likely around 5-10%, of the total starch content to be removed." Hope this helps! 😊
@@LetsEatPlants
Thank you
@@landrodaoud1531 You’re welcome!
Found this idea over on your Instagram. I’m curious about how much 1 serving would be after soaked? Thank you
Good question! I usually eat about 1 cup once soaked. 😊😊
I soak for 6 hours, rinse. Add water and salt and nutri bullet it. Fry in dry pan. Bu kwheat tortillas. Yum
Delicious! 🤩
So you need to soak or an you eat raw?
Can the overnight soak take place in the fridge?
Yes! I often do, especially during the warmer months. 😊
Excellent, you earned a sub.
Welcome!
Buckwheat is a seed. Not a grain. Just an FYI but you may know that already. 😊
Hahaha very true! Thank you for that clarification. I should have said “it’s a grain-like seed” 😂😂
Oooh so you dont have to boil it at all? Is it ok if instead of soaking you just boil it?
Of course! You can cook it or have it raw (soaked) like this. Either was is great! 😊
@@LetsEatPlants thanks a lot for your quick answer! Your channel is great I just subscribed!
@@YFL.111 Awesome! Welcome! 🤗
Hi can eat mix with overnight oat? Is that ok to eat raw? Thank u..be safe
Yep! Should be totally fine to mix those together. I do rinse the overnight buckwheat, whereas overnight oats I usually don't rinse... But I guess you could mix them together after rinsing the buckwheat. 😊 Buckwheat is fine to eat without cooking, as long as you soak it first. Same with oats. Hope this helps! 🤗
@@LetsEatPlants thank u for explain...pls be safe 😍
@@carltonwillams3962 thank u for explain sis..really helpful for me..thank u sis.. Pls be safe
What?
So you soak them overnight (or longer) and then sieve to get rid of liquid and then eat them? That is it?
Sieve & rinse with fresh water, but yep the rest is correct! 🤗🤗
I wonder if you can make buckwheat milk? I have an almond milk making machine and I wonder if buckwheat can be made into milk like almonds?
That's a great question! I'm not sure as I've never done it or heard of it done. But after checking google looks like a few people have tried it before! Would love to know how it goes for you if you end up trying it out. 🤗🌱
I like to add it to my açaí bowl.
Great idea! I will have to try that as well. Very yummy. 😋😋
Ohh I thought you were going to dehydrate them. I looove it dehydrated like granola. But I'd love to try this.
Oh, that is a great idea! I have only had it in granola.. never dehydrated by itself. I will have to give that a try! Thank you for the idea! 🙏🏻🙏🏻
@@LetsEatPlants You can soak it then drain it, add maple syrup. Then try it in the oven till crisp. Then add whatever you like to have in granola 👍
@@2malsahm59 Sounds lovely! I will give it a try this weekend. Thank you so much! 🙏🏻🙏🏻
@@2malsahm59 what temperature you dry it?
@@GaurangPurohit hello, I've done as low as my oven will go which is 170 degrees. Stir about 2 times till dry
Which other grains can be used without cooking?
That is a great question! To be honest, I don't actually know the answer! The only two I've ever heard of are buckwheat & oats. I've seen soaking & sprouting grains before cooking them (and beans as well), but not sure if any of those could be eaten _without_ cooking. I'll be sure to ask in my sprouting FB group! Thanks for the question. 😄

Thanks so much for making this video! I'm new to eating plant-based and I'm also reading Woman Code and trying to sync my eating a bit to my female cycle. Buckwheat is recommended for the menstrual phase, along with wild rice. I'm excited to get some buckwheat grouts tomorrow! Hopefully my local German stores (we're military) has some in stock!
That's awesome! Welcome to the plant based lifestyle!! 🤩🤩 If you ever have any questions, please don't hesitate to reach out. Haven't heard of Woman Code, but sounds very interesting! Wild rice is great, although there has been some concerns over arsenic levels with rice, you can check out more info here: nutritionfacts.org/2021/01/07/how-risky-is-the-arsenic-in-rice/ and wellnessmama.com/health/arsenic-rice/ (We still eat rice, but I always feel it's good just to be fully informed, so just passing this info along. 😄) Hope you're able to find buckwheat!!
Thanks
Hi, can the sprouts be fermented after that with salt and a starter?
Hi there! I’m not sure about that! I’d check online and see. 🙂
Buckwheat is a seed not a grain
Hi, do u know, if i want make blend a powder, do i need to wash first?thank u..be safe
Hi! Do you mean to blend the buckwheat groats into a flour/ powder?? If that’s what you mean, then no, you don’t need to wash first. Hope that helps! 😊😊
@@LetsEatPlants you understand my poor english 😃..thank you thank you thank you...be safe pls😍
@@tjhiulianghalim7196 🤗🤗🤗 You’re welcome!! ☺️
Is it possible to make this overnight with barley or quinoa?
Hmmm great question! I haven’t seen either of those done as overnight option, but definitely check! I’m not sure either way. ☺️☺️
Does this work for Himalayan buckwheat also?
Hi there! Sorry, I'm not familiar with Himalayan buckwheat! I tried to google it, but couldn't find many answers. Maybe contact the company where you purchased it from?
Where did you get the Himalayan buckwheat? I'd like to get some, as I heard it is more nutritious.
I tried this last night and when I woke up I went to it and it smelled a little bit. Like the top water it sat in. Is that normal?
Hmmm I don’t remember there being a smell, but sometimes I will see some discoloration of the water. Definitely give them a good rinse or 2 just in case and then taste them and see if they taste ok. 😄 If any unusual taste or odor once rinsed, you may want to toss them but I haven’t had that issue before so not entirely sure!
@@LetsEatPlants thank you!!!!
@@VictoriaBiblicalHebrew you’re welcome!
Hi miss.. Can we eat buckwheat without cooking it?
Hi! Yes, that is correct. You do not need to cook it. You only need to soak it first for 8-12 hours until it is soft. Enjoy! 😊😊
@@LetsEatPlants thanks dear stay safe 💕
You’re welcome! Thank you, same to you. 🤗
Can I eat everyday as breakfast?
I think it would be ok! 🌱🌱
But if you have any specific health questions, I would always advise to check with a plant based dietician, if possible. 😊😊
Do need to soak or can I eat raw?
Yes, you need to soak them first! After soaking you can eat them raw. You cannot eat them raw without soaking. 😊
@@LetsEatPlants oh no lol. I’ve eaten them raw without soaking before .
Once I soak how long can they store in the fridge after draining if I want to use later ?
@@BB-ux5wd Oh wow! I'm surprised! I find them wayyy too firm. 😆 I think it's not recommended to eat them without soaking first due to digestion.
Once soaked & drained, they can store in the fridge for a few days! Probably max I would go is about 3 days in the fridge. 🤗
@@LetsEatPlants thank you . 💜
I actually enjoyed the crunch lol
@@BB-ux5wd 😄👍🏻
What is the acid you mentioned?
Phytic acid 😊
So it's eaten raw, right?
Correct!
I didnt rince them and tgey were like the buckwheat that is shreaded already
Oh definitely give them a rinse! Will help remove any residual soaking water. 😌😌
She added the two best seeds and the king of nuts.
Thanks! 🤗🤗
I sprout my buckwheat and rinse it twice a day till the sprout come out with a little tail
Yummy! That's a great way to do it. 😊
No need to cook the buckwheat?
No need! 🤗
Super :)
Glad you enjoyed! 🤗
Why don't you mention?!😮There's brown and green varieties!
Oooh nice! I didn’t know! You mean the toasted vs. raw? Or there is also a brown raw?
So you don’t need to cook it? Just soak in water? Interesting!
Yep! Similar to oats and how many people will make overnight oats just by soaking them for 8-12 hours. ☺️
why not heat it up on the stove? Does it taste different when cooked?
You can do it either way! I do also have a cooked version if you prefer. But this is nice to have in the summer since you can eat it more like a cold cereal. It also retains more texture this way, more like a granola, vs. the cooked is more like porridge. Enjoy! 🤗
