This simple, nourishing recipe is a different take on an old classic. We made it in our pressure cooker, however you can easily make it on a stove top. Despite the name, buckwheat is not related to wheat. It’s a gluten-free starchy seed that is used like a grain. According to Ayurveda, buckwheat can be enjoyed by each dosha, however, its light, nourishing qualities make it especially good for kapha dosha. This recipe serves 2 people. Be sure to add any additions desired, and remember – kitchari is supposed to be porridge-like in consistency, however you can add less water if you would like it to be thicker.
