About Buckwheat Flour
Break up lumps and level a spoon-filled cup. Light and dark buckwheat flours differ in flavour and appearance, so keep the product choice consistent when repeating a recipe.
Buckwheat works in recipes designed for its structure, including some pancakes and galettes. A cup-to-gram conversion cannot supply the structure missing when replacing wheat flour in a risen loaf.
Tips for measuring Buckwheat Flour
- Check whether the recipe uses buckwheat alone or a blend.
- Record the flour's light or dark type.
Common mistakes
