🇷🇺 Russian

Kasha is a warm, nutty porridge made from roasted buckwheat groats that is comforting and simple to prepare. Lightly toasted flavors pair beautifully with a pat of butter and a pinch of salt, making it a versatile side or a hearty breakfast. The texture is fluffy yet substantial — rustic, satisfying, and quick to make.

Method

1

Measure the Roasted Buckwheat Groats (a good starting ratio is 1 cup groats to 2 cups water for a moderately fluffy porridge).

2

Rinse the groats briefly in a fine sieve under cold water to remove any dust, then drain well.

3

Bring the Water to a rolling boil in a medium saucepan, then add the drained groats and a pinch of Salt.

4

Reduce the heat to low, cover the pan, and simmer gently for about 10–15 minutes, or until the water is absorbed and the groats are tender.

5

Remove the pan from the heat, stir in the Unsalted Butter until melted and incorporated, then taste and adjust seasoning with more Salt if needed.

6

Let the kasha sit covered off the heat for 5 minutes to steam and become fluffier, then fluff with a fork and serve warm.
