Buckwheat Infusion

To make an infusion, steep the leaves in hot water to create a herbal tea with a unique flavour profile. Simply place a tablespoon or two of dried buckwheat leaves in a teapot or mug, pour boiling water over them, steep for 5-10 minutes, strain, and enjoy. You can add honey or lemon for taste.

You can use dried buckwheat leaves as a seasoning or garnish in cooking. They can add a nutty, earthy flavour to dishes like soups, stews, salads, or stir-fries. Simply crush the leaves and sprinkle them over your dish before serving.
