The wheat that is not a wheat

Buckwheat is a very healthy alternative that is not a grain. I been using Buckwheat in pasta dishes, making crapes and waffles. The taste of buckwheat is very earthy, dense and rich. I think this is one of those dishes that the more I try the more I like it. Most recently I added poppy sees and lemon juice to my buckwheat waffles and they turned out heavenly. Here are some of my creations. Enjoy.
