Buckwheat is a healthy and gluten-free seed, it is very popular grain worldwide as is considered super food for the patients who are gluten intolerant and for diabetic patients. It contains more protein than other grains. Kuttu flour is most famous flour to use during fasting days, I also make Kuttu(buckwheat)ki puri to eat during fasting days. Amarnath(choli), whole Amarnath( roasted)ladoo,chestnut(singhara) flour halwa,burfi,sabudana vada,Samak, sabudana khichari,vrat dosa is also consuming during fasting .Kuttu seeds are hot in nature so my mother gives every time advice to have some curd (yogurt) along with kuttu to balance it and making time add little chestnut flour make more tasty and healthy kuttu pakodi.
