Cookinero 24 Apr 2025

Buckwheat is one of the healthiest cereals, which contains dietary fiber, phosphorus, magnesium and other useful elements. If you cook buckwheat porridge with dried mushrooms, you will get a hearty and nutritious dish. The most delicious dried mushrooms are porcini, so they will be used in the recipe. The dish is ideal for those who do not eat animal products or observe Lent, because it contains only buckwheat, mushrooms, onions and spices. Buckwheat with mushrooms is cooked in a pot.
