Notes
Buckwheat Groats: I've bought my buckwheat groats on Amazon (Bob's Red Mill brand, this brand by Anthony's, and Liz highly recommends this Russian brand).Buttermilk: the batter will be quite a bit thinner using homemade buttermilk so consider cutting down the amount of buttermilk to 2 1/2 or 2 3/4 cups if doing so.
