India is considered the birthplace of buckwheat: it began to be grown there 5,000 years ago. First it spread throughout Asia, then reached Europe. Interestingly, in Greece it was called Turkish cereal, and in Spain and Italy - Arabic. In Western Europe, buckwheat did not take root as a dish, but in Russia it is very popular. There are many options for preparing it. Buckwheat with mushrooms and onions in a frying pan is one such option.
