Buckwheat is a grass and is naturally gluten-free and grain-free. Use Spiral organic 100% Buckwheat pasta made with only organic buckwheat flour. Read the ingredients on the packet as some brands may also contain rice, corn or maize flours. Buckwheat belongs to the grass family. It’s the fruit of a leafy plant and is packed with vitamins, antioxidants, and plant protein. (I purchase the Macro brand).
