Ingredients

  • 1 tablespoon buckwheat
  • 3 tablespoon water
  • 1 medium-sized pear
  • 1 oz apple juice perfect if homemade in a juicer

Instructions

  • Soak the buckwheat overnight prior to cooking
  • Put the soaked buckwheat into a pot with water and bring to a boil over high heat
  • Continue to cook over low-to-medium heat until the buckwheat absorbs the water
  • In the meantime, wash and peel the pear. Grate if serving as a puree, or cut into long strips for BLW
  • When buckwheat is about half cooked, add the pear
  • Once the buckwheat has fully absorbed the water and pear has softened, reduce heat and allow to cool for at least 5 minutes
  • If serving as a puree, add to blender with apple juice and blend
  • If you are following the BLW method, serve one alongside the other and give apple juice as a drink
