Buckwheat is a porridge that is considered a popular side dish among Russians.
It goes well with many meat, fish and vegetable dishes.
However, there is a certain type of this cereal, as well as a method of its preparation, which is considered the most useful.
Buckwheat porridge is not only tasty, but also extremely healthy. It contains iodine, molybdenum and selenium.
However, any heat treatment destroys these elements.
That is why green buckwheat, which is an unprocessed product, is considered the most useful type of cereal.
It is important that the side dish is prepared not by boiling or frying, but by steaming.
Only with this type of preparation will it be possible to preserve all the beneficial substances that buckwheat contains.
It is best to steam the cereal in the evening and eat it for breakfast. Moreover, experts recommend using warm water instead of boiling water to prepare the dish, which also reduces the risk of destroying useful substances.
