I was frequently fed--and enjoyed!--Cream of Wheat when I was a child. I started buying an organic version as an adult, once my daughter was born. And then a year or two ago...reading Traditional Meals for the Frugal Family (Shannon Stonger) at the same time as a high-end grocery store nearby mysteriously began carrying it, I gave "Creamy Buckwheat" a try. We LOVE that stuff. And I looked up the nutritional content of buckwheat, and I couldn't be more pleased that this is a regular part of our diet.
If only buckwheat were easier to hull! It grows here very nicely as a cover crop, and we could grow and harvest our own if only I could process it!
