Buckwheat flour from non-steamed groats Buckwheat flour made from non-steamed (green) buckwheat groats retains all the valuable properties of buckwheat grain. Green buckwheat flour is ideal for gluten-free baking, fritters and pancakes, as well as bread, because unlike flour from regular (steamed buckwheat groats), it has excellent binding properties. This product does not contain gluten. The absence of gluten is checked at every stage of production.
