Description
A Nutritious, Versatile Flour
Get back to basics with Organic Buckwheat Flour from Ceres Organics. Made from organically grown buckwheat, this flour is milled with care, preserving its rich flavor and natural goodness. Despite the name, buckwheat is the fruit of a plant related to rhubarb and sorrel. It’s a popular ingredient in many international cuisines, including Eastern European blinis, US pancakes, and Japanese soba noodles. With its nutty taste and numerous health benefits, this flour is perfect for your gluten-free baking and cooking needs.
