What is Buckwheat?
Not only is buckwheat not a type of wheat, it is not even technically a "grain”. Buckwheat is actually a fruit seed that comes from a plant that is also called beech wheat. Buckwheat belongs to the Polygonaceae family of plants. Two other well-known members of this family are rhubarb and sorrel. Buckwheat does not contain gluten like wheat does and therefore you can truly count on it to be "wheat-free" in every respect.
