DescriptionBuck wheat flakes*
Buck wheat flakes are a surprising ingredient for a nutritious breakfast. You can use the flakes as a base for muesli for instance, or for a delicious porridge. Both options are nicer with some fresh or dried fruit. You can even use it for all kinds of pastries. Buck wheat is rich in fibre and protein, and also a good source of minerals like magnesium and copper. They also contain the vitamins niacin (B3) and riboflavine (B2). In order to make the flakes, the moisture content of the grain is raised by means of steam. The grains are then flattened by flattening machines, where they come out as flat flakes. It is almost impossible to flatten grains without steam, as the extra moisture makes sure that the grains are flattened instead of crumbled.
