How to prepare Buckwheat Triangle Cake

• 1

  Grind buckwheat seeds into flour

  Method 1: If you have dried buckwheat seeds available, grind the seeds into flour using a blender.

  Note that the blender you have should be at least 1000W and capable of grinding seeds.

  Method 2: If you can find buckwheat flour for purchase, you will save time in this step.

  Method 3: If you have buckwheat seeds but no blender, use a pestle and mortar to grind them into a fine powder.

  This method is manual and takes a lot of time, and sometimes the flour may not be fine enough.
