About 4 thousand years ago, buckwheat was called "black rice" and was considered the food of the poor: the dark color of buckwheat was considered "unclean". For a long time she was not appreciated.
Currently, buckwheat is one of the favorite cereals: the minimum content of carbohydrates in its composition made the queen a “queen diet”, the increased content of necessary vitamins and minerals normalizes blood pressure, improves sleep, saves from hair loss and brittle nails, helps get rid of extra pounds, displays slags and heavy metal molecules.
Buckwheat porridge is especially tasty, if not cooked, but languishes in a cast-iron pot in a Russian oven. A multicooker has such an amazing effect: porridge is aromatic, crumbly and very tasty even without the addition of salt and spices. Buckwheat in a Panasonic multicooker is cooked in automatic mode "Buckwheat", that is, the cooking time does not need to be counted.
Buckwheat "Dietary"
Pour one multi-glass of washed buckwheat into a multicooker and fill with two multi-glasses of water. Throw washed washed raisins and dried apricots to it. Set the "Buckwheat" mode and expect a sound signal - it beeped, which means that the fragrant healthy porridge is ready!
Porridge with dried fruits goes well with milk.
Porridge with red beans
A dish rich in protein and vitamins energizes the whole day.
Fry the diced onion in the “Fry” mode, add canned red beans, pour one multi-glass of buckwheat and a half multi-glass of water or meat broth, mix well.
Set the buckwheat mode. Porridge with beans goes well with a light vegetable salad.
Recipes for multicookers are not limited to simple cooking porridge. You can make both a side dish and a meat dish.
Buckwheat in the Boyarskaya multicooker

In a multicooker bowl, heat any vegetable oil, add vegetables and meat, set the mode to "Frying" and wait for cooking.
After giving the signal, add one and a half multi-glasses of buckwheat, add two multi-glasses of water, several pieces of washed dried prunes, spices, bay leaf and peppercorns. Mix everything thoroughly and set the Buckwheat mode.
After half an hour, buckwheat in a slow cooker will be ready.
Buckwheat with mushrooms
Buckwheat in a slow cooker with porcini mushrooms is a lean, but very satisfying dish. Porcini mushrooms give porridge a delicious taste and aroma, so it is not worth replacing them with honey mushrooms or oyster mushrooms.
Onion and 400 gr. white mushrooms cut into cubes. If the mushrooms are dried, they are pre-soaked in water.
In the "Frying" mode, spasser the onions and mushrooms until ready.
Pour two multi-glasses of washed buckwheat, pour two multi-glasses of water (you can use water in which the mushrooms were soaked), add salt, your favorite spices.

Instead of meat or mushrooms with vegetables, you can first fry chicken, liver, chicken hearts, chicken stomachs, stew. Buckwheat in a slow cooker always turns out amazing!
