How to cook buckwheat porridge in a slow cooker? This question interests many, so we decided to publish a recipe that will describe the entire process in detail. The most important point in this case is strict adherence to proportions: one part of cereal - two parts of water. You can use scales or simply measure out the ingredients in glasses. Well, the multicooker will provide the necessary tightness when cooking porridge, thanks to which the buckwheat will simmer, gradually absorbing water, and it will turn out soft, tender, and crumbly.

Prepare buckwheat. Go through it, scatter it on the table, remove the debris. Then pour into a large saucepan and cover with cold water. Rinse and place in a sieve. Repeat this until the water becomes clear and clean.

Place buckwheat on several layers of paper towels and smooth out. Let the cereal dry. Then transfer to the multicooker bowl and brown for 5 minutes at 130°C.

Pour drinking water into the multicooker bowl with buckwheat. Set the “Porridge” mode or another suitable for cooking cereals. Close the appliance and cook until the beep sounds.

When the buckwheat porridge is ready, add the butter cut into pieces and stir. Close the multicooker lid. Leave the buckwheat porridge for another 15 minutes.
