Organic buckwheat flour is made from 100% organic buckwheat kernel. Most importantly, it is gluten-free, so it is a great replacement for recipes that use other flours that contain gluten. Buckwheat flour is rich in lysine composition, iron, manganese, zinc and other trace elements than the average grain is rich, and contains rich dietary fiber, so the buckwheat has very good nutrition health care function.
Our organic buckwheat grows in Inner Mongolia, where temperature varies widely from day to night and the sunshine is sufficient, it keeps the nectar flowing into the afternoon when buckwheat blooms. Meanwhile, the soil acidity of Inner Mongolia is pH6 ~ 7 and the soil layer is loose, which is conducive to seedling excavation and root development.
The pyramid-shaped kernels are harvested and ground into surprisingly rich flour with little black specks that come from the ground seed hull. This is how traditional Buckwheat Flour has been made for hundreds of years. Buckwheat flour contains a significant amount of fiber, and studies have shown that it helps slow down the rate of glucose absorption after a meal. Buckwheat is also a good source of protein and calcium. Buckwheat has a unique, assertive flavor that is especially great in both quick and yeast bread.
Our organic buckwheat flour is produced according to the EU and USDA organic standards.
