Cloudy or slightly thick rinse water is therefore normal during the early stages, but thorough rinsing and drainage are particularly important.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eCook Buckwheat Kernels as a Whole Grain Alternative\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eBuckwheat kernels can also be cooked without sprouting.
