Coconut oil (CO) is the only approved oil for cooking in the Budwig protocol, because it is more resistant to forming bad compounds at a higher heat. I use it to cook onions and garlic to add a savory component to soups, and the BP recipe for buckwheat calls for cooking the buckwheat slightly in CO before adding water to finish cooking. I'm using Tropical Traditions presently which does have a very strong coconut oil taste. I find that adding a lot of curry powder, turmeric and black pepper to a dish will disguise the taste. I make buckwheat "pizza" by making a flat pile of cooked buckwheat that has lots of curry powder, etc, cover with pizza sauce or seasoned yogurt, top with mozzarella cheese, brown slightly, then cover with onions, garlic, and mushrooms cooked in CO and olives. Discovering buckwheat has been great as I am gluten intolerant, and buckwheat is very nutritious, even has some B-17, and complete amino acids. I melt it to put on popcorn along with nutritional yeast (popcorn is not in the BP but I'm using up what I have). I also make a decadent chocolate substitute with it, I melt 1 Tbsp of CO and add 1 oz cocoa powder, vanilla or almond extract, and a sweetener- a tsp of honey, or some stevia or xylitol. If put on some frozen banana slices the chocolate hardens like the chocolate shell on an ice cream bar. Yummy!
