These delicious vegan homemade sourdough croutons with garlic & Himalayan Tartary Buckwheat are amazing! They rock in soups, salads, stuffing, casseroles, and more.
If you’re anything like me and adore the rich crispy taste of buttery croutons, you’re going to love this vegan croutons recipe made with Himalayan Tartary Buckwheat sourdough bread.
It packs more flavor and nutrients than prepackaged croutons hands down.
That’s because Tartary, also known as HTB, is an exceptional seed. Long a mainstay of Asia and other parts of the world, it was developed here in the US after Dr. Jeffrey Bland and other scientists learned how nutrient-dense it is.
It rocks four bioactive compounds—rutin, quercetin, luteolin, and hesperidin—and a powerhouse free-radical scavenger that’s considered pretty rare (2-HOBA). It also stacks vitamins, minerals, protein, fiber, and immense prebiotics for your gut.
