Pre-gelatinized flour is made by puffing whole grain buckwheat with the hull on, similar to the process used for making puffed cereal, then grinding the puffed buckwheat into fine flour. The pre gelatinized flour si then blended with regular buckwheat flour forming a 60 / 40 percent ratio. Water is added to form dough, which is then kneaded, rolled, and cut. The noodles are then dried and cut to length.
