Prepare buckwheat porridge in a slow cooker using water. Buckwheat porridge. Composition and calorie content of buckwheat

Buckwheat is certainly a healthy product, but not every housewife can prepare it correctly. The thing is that in our heads, at a genetic level, we probably have the idea of ​​simmering buckwheat over low heat for as long as possible. This statement is true only if the buckwheat is cooked in a pot in a Russian oven. The algorithm for cooking buckwheat on the stove is completely different, and, unfortunately, in this case the cereal does not reveal its full potential.

It’s a completely different matter if you prepare buckwheat porridge in a slow cooker. Overseas engineers miraculously guessed the mode in which the cereal simmers at a low temperature, without losing its aroma and fully revealing its excellent taste.

Buckwheat porridge in a slow cooker is an excellent side dish for meat, fish or vegetable dishes, as well as an independent dish. And, of course, milk buckwheat porridge in a slow cooker will be a great start to the day for the little members of your family.

  • The first thing you need to pay attention to when buying buckwheat is its color: the lighter the grains, the less the grain was exposed to temperature, which means that all the beneficial substances are more fully preserved in it;
  • Before cooking, you need to sort out the buckwheat. Grains often contain grains of other crops (or even completely uncultivated plants), but it is much more unpleasant when small pebbles get on your teeth. You can even break a tooth!
  • Rinse the grains on a sieve, so the buckwheat will be less saturated with water and better washed from dust and small debris;
  • After washing, it would be a good idea to heat the buckwheat in a dry frying pan to dry it.

Ingredients:
1 tbsp. buckwheat,
2 tbsp. water,
50-70 g butter,
1 tsp salt.

Preparation:
This ratio of buckwheat and water - 1:2 - is mandatory, since in this case the cereal does not boil. You can grease the multicooker bowl with butter, or you can put it like that. Pour the prepared cereal into the bowl, add water, salt, close the lid and set the “Buckwheat”, “Grain” or “Porridge” mode. All! For a richer taste, use meat, mushroom or vegetable broth.

Ingredients:
1 tbsp. buckwheat,
2 tbsp. water or broth
1 large carrot,
1 onion,
1 clove of garlic (optional)
1 thick-walled sweet pepper,
1 tsp salt,
a pinch of ground black pepper,

Preparation:
Cut the carrots into cubes, the onion into cubes, and the sweet pepper into strips. Place the vegetables in the multicooker bowl along with the oil and fry until soft in the “Baking” or “Frying” mode. Then add the prepared cereal, water or broth, add salt and close the lid. Set the “Buckwheat” mode.

This buckwheat porridge can be served with a meat or fish dish with gravy. But a multicooker allows you to prepare buckwheat porridge with the addition of various products, so to speak, a “2-in-1” dish. And we offer you several simple recipes.

To prepare this dish, you can use chicken meat cut from the bones or breast. Meat and vegetables can be fried as in the previous recipe, but if you skip this step, the dish will be lighter. So, put chopped chicken meat, vegetables, cut into cubes into the bowl, add buckwheat, add water, salt, add spices and set the “Buckwheat” mode (or similar programs).

Buckwheat is one of the healthiest foods. Firstly, the porridge made from it is whole grain. This means that a large amount of insoluble fiber enters the body with it, has a beneficial effect on the digestive tract in general and on beneficial intestinal microflora in particular. Secondly, it is the richest in protein, vitamins and microelements compared to other cereals. That is why buckwheat occupies a leading place in the dietary nutrition of sick people, the elderly and children.

As soon as multicookers appeared in our kitchens, the postulate that everything healthy is tasteless lost its significance. This also applies to buckwheat. In addition, there is another plus: convenience and ease of preparation, as well as the ability to program the readiness of a dish at a specific time. So, how to cook excellent buckwheat porridge in a slow cooker? Since we’ve already touched on diets, let’s start with a light, quickly digestible dish.

How to cook milk buckwheat porridge in a slow cooker

Multi-cooker, multi-glass, spoon.

Ingredients

Pay special attention to buckwheat

All its beneficial qualities are fully preserved only in nucleus(whole grain without shells) and green(raw) buckwheat. The latter is most often used as a therapeutic food and is practically not subjected to heat treatment. It is not advisable to cook it, since the nutritional properties of boiled green buckwheat are equivalent to egg grains.

The least useful is the chaff- a kernel split into 2 or more parts. It is more suitable for preparing viscous porridge or making all kinds of minced meat.

Which buckwheat to choose

So, let's get it clear: you need core. It is sold packaged and by weight.

  • When buying in a package, consider the buckwheat between the inscriptions. The grains must be the same size, free from impurities, and uniform brown, brown-yellow or brown-green in color. Dark brown with a reddish tint - overcooked, it is not suitable.
  • If you buy it by weight, you can also smell it. A damp or moldy odor is unacceptable. Buckwheat has its own taste, pleasant and specific.
