Kasha
 Gluten-free kasha is perfect for those with wheat allergies. In the United States, kasha referes to roasted buckwheat groats. It has a strong, nutty aroma and toasty flavor.
Use kasha in salads, soups breads, side dishes, pancakes, and waffles.

Kasha Tips
Kasha Strength
Kasha has a strong flavor. I like it used in salads with a rich balsamic dressing to complement the strong flavor of the grain.

- The Electric Pressure Cooker is Chef Brad's favorite pan for cooking breakfast cereals. It cooks fast and turns to a keep warm mode. Grains stay hot and in perfect condition for hours when cooked using the electric pressure cooker.
- Most grains do well in the pressure cooker. Natural release method is recommended. Meaning after suggested cooking time turn off heat and let the pressure come down naturally.
