Buckwheat with mushrooms

India is considered the birthplace of buckwheat: it was grown there 5,000 years ago. First, it spread across Asia, then reached Europe. Interestingly, in Greece it was called Turkish cereal, and in Spain and Italy - Arabic. In Western Europe, buckwheat did not take root as a dish, but in Russia it is very popular. There are many ways to cook it. Buckwheat with mushrooms and onions in a frying pan is one of these options.

Yes, you can substitute with any mushrooms you have on hand, such as cremini, shiitake, or button mushrooms. Adjust cooking time if they are thicker or thinner than usual.
Buckwheat is naturally gluten-free, so no substitution is needed. However, ensure all other ingredients, like broth (if used), are certified gluten-free if you have dietary restrictions.
To make it vegan, simply use a plant-based oil and ensure any added broth is vegetable-based. The recipe is already vegetarian-friendly as written.
Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat gently on the stove with a splash of water to prevent drying out.
Yes, this dish freezes well. Cool completely, then store in a freezer-safe container for up to 2 months. Thaw overnight in the fridge before reheating.
For extra protein, consider adding cooked lentils, chickpeas, or diced tofu during the cooking process. They blend well with the flavors of mushrooms and buckwheat.
Serve with a side of steamed greens, a fresh salad, or a dollop of sour cream or yogurt for added richness. It also pairs well with pickled vegetables.
Yes, you can use a rice cooker. Sauté the onions and mushrooms separately, then add everything to the rice cooker with water and cook as you would rice.
