I tried dumplings made with buckwheat flour and buckwheat pancakes fried in oil. Unlike regular meat dumplings with a typical wheat dough, these had a strong buckwheat aroma and a healthy, wholesome taste. The buckwheat pancakes were savory and flavorful. They can be made purely with buckwheat flour or mixed with other ingredients to enhance the taste. Their distinctive flavor is nutty and rich. If you add kimchi, you get kimchi buckwheat pancakes, and if you add seafood, you get seafood buckwheat pancakes.
