Does anyone know how many carbs are in buckwheat, interested because wheat and gluten free.
 
It's relatively high carb. Most sources on the internet have the US carb value.
This one is from a French source and gives it at 71.5g carbs per hundred grams.

It is relatively low GI and like everything depends on how much you use.
I sometimes use it in galettes
(french buckwheat pancakes; basically flour, water and a bit of oil; though I can and often do buy ready made). Each pancake contains about 15g of carbs and if you fill it with your choice of things such as cheese/bacon/eggs/spinach/mushrooms/ tomatoes/asparagus/ smoked salmon etc , it makes a filling, moderate carb lunch with a green salad
