Roasted, brown buckwheat is called kasha in English, and raw buckwheat is just buckwheat. It's very hard to find any raw buckwheat in Russia. Raw buckwheat can be sprouted and it makes very healthy raw meal. I love raw buckwheat. If anyone knows where to find it in Norway, please share.

In finnish Buckwheat seems to be 'Tattariryyni' I spent a week with Kuzbass scouts making an expedition to Finland and Lappland. I was amazed to discover how portable, flexible and delicious the 'cuisine of Russia' can be. I am sure you have also tasted the wonderful fruit-squash(?) served hot or cold... best greetings, Martti Thankyou Susanna for the most practical tip fitting my cottage menu perfectly.

Rebecka, those must be "сушки" [sushki], sort of a small hard bagel. I find that the best way to cook “loose” buckwheat is in the rice cooker.
