HOW TO COOK BUCKWHEAT KASHA
Buckwheat is a superfood that you may not know about. It's definitely under-appreciated and under-utilized in the US, but everyone should know how healthy and scrumptious it is! It's also completely gluten free! It's name is a little deceiving because it's called buckwheat but there is no relation to wheat - none whatsoever! It's also just as simple to make as white rice. My son loves buckwheat with gravy on it and I love it plain with butter (pickle on the side ofcourse).

Steps:
- Rinse and drain buckwheat well.
- In a medium sauce pan, combine buckwheat with 1 3/4 cups water, 1 Tbsp butter and 1/2 tsp salt. Bring to a simmer then cover with a tight fitting lid and simmer on low for 18-20 min. Just like with rice, you should hear hissing while cooking and it will get quiet when done. Stir in additional 1 Tbsp butter if desired.
- Transfer all ingredients to the rice cooker and set on the white rice setting. When done, add an extra Tbsp of butter if desired and stir in 1-2 tsp water to moisten up the kernels if they seem dry. Serve hot.
KASHA CALIENTE
It was a love of kasha and memories of family that inspired Nancy Jane Richer of Knoxville, Tenn., to create this holiday recipe. Ms. Richer's father loved kasha and died on Thanksgiving more than a decade ago. Recently, Ms. Richer spotted wild turkeys in her winter vegetable garden. For her, it felt like a message. "It was a magical omen," Ms. Richer said. The result is this spicy take on kasha, created in memory of Ms. Richer's parents. The dish is robust enough to eat as a vegetarian main course, but also tempting as a side dish for everyone at the table.

Steps:
- In a medium pot, bring vegetable broth to a boil. Immediately cover and turn off the heat. In a large skillet (preferably nonstick) over medium heat, add kasha and one-third of the beaten eggs. Stir, coating the kasha in the egg, and toasting the grains. Stir constantly, cooking until the egg is no longer visible. Add the just boiled broth and simmer for 10 to 15 minutes, until the liquid has absorbed. Remove to a bowl and set aside.
- In a large skillet over medium-high heat, add butter. Once the butter has melted add onion. Cook, stirring often, until onion has softened, then add garlic. Cook garlic for a minute, until fragrant. Add the vegetable crumbles and cook just until hot. Add the scallions, Mexicorn, fire roasted tomatoes, kidney beans, lime, chili powder, cumin seeds and dry cumin, dry cilantro, garlic salt, Italian seasoning, tomatillo salsa and remaining eggs. Fold in the cooked kasha and mix until thoroughly combined.
- Scrape mixture into a lightly oiled 9 x 13 baking dish. Top the mixture with shredded cheese and bake, uncovered, for 40 to 45 minutes, until cheese is golden brown and bubbling. Allow to cool slightly before serving with additional tomatillo salsa.

RACHEL'S PEARL ONION AND KASHA KUGEL
I saw these frozen bags of pearl onions at Whole Foods, then the gears started to turn in my head, and I knew I had to make something with them. I originally wanted to use potatoes or matzo meal to go with the pearl onions but having just had a delicious kasha knish from Yonah Schimmel's I went into a bulk bin frenzy, bought some wonderful roasted kasha, I made a whole bunch after I went nuts in the kitchen, this was the result! I cooked my kasha ahead of time, but you can use it freshly hot if you're careful about mixing in the egg.

Steps:
- Bring the broth or water to a boil and add a little salt and paprika. Sweet works great, I like smoked for that extra zing.
- Add the kasha, stir, and leave on high heat uncovered.
- Once the kasha expands and soaks up the liquid at the top (about 5 minutes) cover with lid and leave on low heat for another 12-15 minutes. Make sure all liquid has been absorbed at the bottom!
- Fluff with a fork and place into a mixing bowl. Or if making ahead of time, put into a container and refrigerate, then later put it in the mixing bowl.
- Empty the bag of frozen pearl onions into a small bowl, and rinse any freezer burn off them with warm water. Pat dry.
- Put the pearl onions into the mixing bowl of kasha.
- Using the same small, cold bowl from rinsing the frozen onions, beat the eggs with the oil and spices then mix into the large bowl. If you make and cool the kasha ahead of time, you don't need to mix them separately but I do this anyway to evenly coat the mixture-- as my grandpa used to say, "This knish filling is good but it needs more snot to hold it together!".
- Pour into a well-oiled 9.5" or 10" pie pan.
- Bake for 50-60 minutes at 350F, or until the top is nice and browned.

KASHA
For years I have had uneven results with buckwheat groats, or kasha, as the dry-roasted grains are called. I have tried different methods, both stovetop and oven, and usually mixed the grains with an egg before cooking. Sometimes my grains cooked up to a mush, other times they held their shape but still seemed rather soft and indistinct. I sort of gave up on kasha for a while, opting for more predictable grains and pseudo-grains like quinoa and spelt. But I love the flavor of buckwheat, so this week I took another stab at buckwheat groats with a box of medium-grain kasha I bought at the supermarket - and everything changed. These grains were cracked, like bulgur, something I hadn't seen before. I followed the directions on the box, and they turned out perfect -- dry and fluffy, with the wonderful nutty/earthy buckwheat flavor I find so appealing. To see if it was the cut of the grain only or the combination of the cut of the grain and the cooking method that gave me such good results, I used the exact same cooking method using whole toasted buckwheat groats. The whole groats turned out better than any I had made before, but they took three times as long to cook than the cracked groats, yielded a little less, and because all of the egg is not absorbed by the whole grains the way it is by the cracked grains, which have more cut surfaces to absorb the egg, you get some egg flakes floating on the top of the cooked kasha, which is not very attractive (though it's easy to remove them).

Steps:
- Combine water, salt, and butter in a small saucepan and bring to a boil. Once it reaches the boil turn off heat and cover.
- Meanwhile, beat egg in a medium bowl and add kasha. Mix together until grains are thoroughly and evenly coated.
- Transfer to a medium-size, wide, heavy saucepan (I use Analon nonstick), place over high heat and stir egg-coated kasha constantly until grains are dry, smell toasty, and no egg is visible, 2 to 3 minutes. Add just-boiled water, turn heat to very low, cover and simmer 10 to 12 minutes for cracked kasha, 30 minutes for whole kasha, or until all of the liquid is absorbed. Remove from heat.
- Remove lid from pan, place clean dish towel over pan (not touching the grains), and cover tightly. Let sit undisturbed for 10 to 15 minutes. Fluff and serve.

KASHA VARNISHKES AT WOLFF'S IN NEW JERSEY
Packaged bow-tie noodles,large and small, quickly replaced the flat homemade egg noodles in the American version of kasha varnishkes. The trick to a good kasha varnishke is to toast the whole-grain buckwheat groat well over a high heat for 2 to 4 minutes until you start smelling the aroma of the kasha. This will seal the groats so that there is a nutty, crunchy taste to them, a good foil to the soft taste of the noodles.

Steps:
- 1. Sauté the onions in 2 tablespoons of the margarine or chicken fat in a heavy frying pan with a cover until golden. Remove to a plate.
- 2. Beat the egg in a small mixing bowl and stir in the kasha. Mix, making sure all the grains are coated. Put the kasha in the same frying pan, set over a high heat. Flatten, stir, and break up the egg-coated kasha with a fork or wooden spoon for 2 to 4 minutes or until the egg has dried on the kasha and the kernels brown and mostly separate.
- 3. Add the water or bouillon, salt, and pepper to the frying pan and bring to a boil. Add the onions, cover tightly, and cook over low heat, steaming the kasha for 10 minutes. Remove the cover, stir, and quickly check to see if the kernels are tender and the liquid has been absorbed. If not, cover and continue steaming for 3 to 5 minutes more.
- 4. Meanwhile, bring a large pot of water to a boil. Cook the bow-tie noodles according to the directions on the package. Drain.
- 5. When the kasha is ready, combine with the noodles. Adjust the seasoning, sprinkle with the parsley and coriander. If desired, add a bit more margarine or chicken fat.

- Prepare the vegetables. Chop the onions finely. Chop the garlic as well. Cut the peppers into thin strips. Halve the leeks lengthwise, if very thick, and cut the halves into thin half rounds. Set aside.
- In the meantime, bring the vegetable stock used for cooking the buckwheat groats to a boil. When the liquid boils, add the rinsed buckwheat groats, cover the saucepan with a tight-fitting lid and simmer on low heat until done to your liking. Check the buckwheat's package instructions regarding the cooking times, they can differ from pack to pack and sometimes a lot. Check the buckwheat 2-3 minutes earlier than indicated on the package, just to make sure you don't overcook it. It should be soft but still, have a good bite. Mushy buckwheat is not so good.
- Heat the oil in a larger and deeper pan. Cook the onions for about 2 minutes. Add the garlic, peppers, and leeks. Stir well and cook for about 3-4 minutes or until slightly softer.
- In the meantime, halve the cherry tomatoes. Add them to the pan together with the smoked and sweet paprika powder, turmeric, chili flakes, lemon juice, and vegetable broth.
