Hulled Buckwheat Kernels from Japan
Buckwheat kernels with the outer hull removed. Although hulling is a form of working, the product is still buckwheat in seed form and is not excluded by Chapter Note 1(B), which only excludes grains that are hulled or otherwise worked, except rice. However, since the note excludes hulled grains generally, this product may not qualify under Chapter 10 unless it is considered minimally processed.
