These delicious Himalayan Tartary Buckwheat flour tortillas are easy to make. A go-to for wraps, burritos, quesadillas, and more.
These delicious Himalayan Tartary Buckwheat (HTB) flour tortillas are easy to make. They’re also more nutrient-dense than standard tortillas with HTB and almond flour onboard.
But in case you haven’t heard, Himalayan Tartary Buckwheat is an amazing plant. Long a mainstay of Asia and other parts of the world, it was developed here in the US by Dr. Jeffrey Bland after he and other scientists learned that Tartary, also known as Fagopyrum tataricum, is an exceptional seed.
It packs four bioactive compounds—rutin, quercetin, luteolin, and hesperidin—and a powerhouse free-radical scavenger that’s considered pretty rare (2-HOBA).
It also rocks vitamins, minerals, polyphenols, flavonols, and immense prebiotics for your gut. In fact according to Dr. Bland it’s “the most immuneoactive, nutrient-dense plant yet discovered.”
