Growing up in a Ukrainian household, I’ve eaten my fair share of buckwheat, usually either plain or in combination with some kinda meat. I’ve recently had the urge to give buckwheat another try since I have a rice cooker and didn’t really know what to eat it with.
I had some leftover veggies from yesterday (ruccola and soy sprouts mainly) and tried adding those to the buckwheat, but it was just okay-ish. Just tried a plate plain with just soy sauce and enjoyed it a lot actually! I could see some fried tofu going well with it, but other than that, I’m kinda lost here.
Do you guys have any recipes to share? Or seasoning you use if you just eat plain buckwheat? Thanks :)
I had to Google the translation and found out it’s “sarrasin” in French. Boy you’re in luck, one of my favourite foods ever uses this flour: the “galette bretonne” (aka “crêpe bretonne”). They can be made with many toppings, typically savoury but sweet is also possible. Originally it’s mostly non-vegan stuff of course (we are taking about French cuisine here), but I’m sure you can come up with many vegan toppings.
So yeah I’d suggest googling that and finding out how to make your own batter and go from there! I foresee many delicious crêpes in your future!
