Description
Buckwheat ( Fagopyrum esculentum ), or common buckwheat , is a flowering plant in the knotweed family Polygonaceae cultivated for its grain- like seeds and as a cover crop. The name "buckwheat" is used for several other species, such as Fagopyrum tataricum , a domesticated food plant raised in Asia.
Despite its name, buckwheat is not closely related to wheat. It is not a cereal, nor is it even a member of the grass family. Buckwheat is related to sorrel, knotweed, and rhubarb, and is known as a pseudocereal because its seeds' culinary use is the same as cereals, owing to their high starch content.
