Question 1

How is the organic buckwheat germinated?

Accepted Answer

The ripe organic buckwheat seeds are left to swell in water several times. In the process, they absorb many times their size in water. The water gives the buckwheat seed the go-ahead to germinate - a small sprout is formed from which the buckwheat plant would later grow. The germinated organic buckwheat is then gently dried so that all nutrients are preserved.

Question 2

Is the sprouted organic buckwheat gluten-free?

Accepted Answer

Buckwheat is naturally gluten-free. You don't have to worry about cross-contamination either, no gluten-containing foods are processed near the sprouted buckwheat.

Question 3

Does sprouted buckwheat have raw food quality?

Accepted Answer

Yes, the buckwheat is only germinated and then dried. So it is a food in raw food quality.

Question 4

How to prepare sprouted buckwheat?

Accepted Answer

You can nibble the sprouted buckwheat directly as it arrives at your place. You do not have to cook it. Sprouted buckwheat is perfect as an ingredient for your muesli, porridge, as a topping for other hearty dishes like salads, or as a secret ingredient in bread.

Question 5

Why is the organic buckwheat germinated in the first place?

Accepted Answer

On the one hand, the germination process breaks down inhibitors that are supposed to protect the seed from predators (i.e. us). At the same time, substances such as chlorophyll are formed in the tiny shoot and the content of protein and fiber changes. This changes the nutritional values and the bioavailability of nutrients increases due to germination.
