	pieanne  #86887  Tue, 05 Apr 05 01:11 PM I guess the number corresponds to the number of different cereals that are used in each kind of bread    pieanne Joined on Thu, Jan 20 2005 South of France ...But I'm Belgian!

	Antonia  #86918  Tue, 05 Apr 05 02:02 PM Oh yes, What was I thinking? Of course Thanks pieanne    Antonia

	pieanne  #86931  Tue, 05 Apr 05 02:15 PM Always welcome, Antonia!    pieanne

	Antonia  #88141  Fri, 08 Apr 05 03:09 PM Sorry, but I have to ask you sth again. Are the words grain and cereals sometimes interchangeable? Thanks    Antonia

	pieanne  #88148  Fri, 08 Apr 05 03:21 PM I would say so...    pieanne

	Antonia  #88151  Fri, 08 Apr 05 03:23 PM Ok thanks. And how about the meaning of ''a summer annual'' in the context: Buckwheat sounds like a grain, but it's really a summer annual?    Antonia

	pieanne  #88152  Fri, 08 Apr 05 03:25 PM Can be found only in the summer? (just a wild guess, I'm afraid)    pieanne

	abbie1948  #88155  Fri, 08 Apr 05 03:30 PM I'm sorry about this, but I'm a veggie gardener as well as a reader (and cook) of all sorts of recipes! Buckwheat is plant, which flowers in the summer and is sensitive to frost. (The grain is the seed which follows the flower.) Hence the description "summer annual".    abbie1948 Joined on Thu, Mar 24 2005 England Senior Member (2,657) Hope that helps. Abbie
