Characteristics

Unpeeled whole buckwheat is used so it is dark in color, but the nutty flavor is excellent. Buckwheat is a starch crop, yet is high in protein content. It also has a great nutritional value as well as good flavor as it is rich vitamins and nicotinic acid. In addition, it has a good digestion rate. It is gentle on the stomach even after eating as much as you want. It is a food that you can eat without having to worry about gaining weight. It is also rich in fiber, contains rutin, and functions as anthelmintic and depressant.
