Buckwheat Pudding

When you hear the name “Buckwheat” I’m sure the first thing that comes to your mind is Buckwheat flour which is most commonly used in making noodles or pasta. Nowadays there are other uses of buckwheat flour as well. According to everydayglutenfreegourmet buckwheat can be used;

  • For pancakes and quick bread use 25-50% buckwheat flour
  • 25% will give mild buckwheat flavor, 50% will be more assertive
  • As a coating for meat or other protein before frying or baking
  • Make pliable gluten-free wraps
  • Blini, Russian yeast-raised pancakes
  • French savory crepes and a galette
  • Soba noodles

Buckwheat flour is actually the ground-up seed hulls of the buckwheat plant. It’s gluten-free, has an earthy flavor, is a good source of dietary fiber, and contains essential amino acids. This superfood is available to buy in two forms in Finch.lk You can buy the buckwheat grain which is also known as groats or you can buy the flour.

The recipe I’m sharing today is an inspiration from one of my mother’s recipes. When I was a kid she used to make this amazingly delicious and healthy dessert which is known as Kithulpiti Thalapa. Its made with Kithul flour cooked with sweet honey or treacle, coconut milk combined with few other basic ingredients. This treat can be consumed either warm or cold, I generally base it on the weather patterns but my favorite is eating it chilled on a warm day.
