I Don’t Know Who Needs To Hear This, But Buckwheat Is Overrated

Nov 13

For some inexplicit reason, Russians LOVE buckwheat.

It’s a grain that can and is (but really shouldn’t) be used as a side dish for basically all meals, given to babies as porridge, and as a breakfast staple.

I’m here to tell you that it tastes like dirt, and is the absolute inferior and weird cousin of rice, flower, potatoes and almost every other carb out there.

God bless Masha, but even she cannot quite defend this little gem… it’s not even as appealing as Russian architecture on a sloshy autumn morning.

Words and phrases:
- Dirt: грязь - ‘gryaz’
- Buckwheat : Гречневая каша - ‘Grechnevaya kasha’
- Kvass: Квас - ‘Kvas’
- Jelly Meat: Холодец - ‘Holodets’
