Best Answer

No. Buckwheat is not a real wheat, it is more like a sunflower seed. Buckwheat flour does not contain gluten unless gluten is added or the flour is blended with other types of flour. The lack of gluten makes it harder to work with compared to wheat flours. Check the packaging label to be sure of what you are buying.

Is buckwheat a grain?

No. It isn't. It's two entirely different plants. Don't let the word 'wheat' in it's name confuse you. Buckwheat (Fagopyrum esculentum) looks like a grain and tastes like a grain but isn't a grain at all. Buckwheat is thought of as a cereal, but is actually an herb of the buckwheat family, Polygonaceae, a relative of the rhubarb. Buckwheat is also gluten free, which makes it an ideal food for those allergic or sensitive to the gluten in found wheat and other true grains. After being removed from the husk, the triangular seeds are used to make flour. --------
