    Hello there,

    I do not know the exact name for buckwheat in Tamil. Your blog says the following:
    English: Buckwheat
    Tamil: Kotu
    Telugu:
    Hindi: Kootu
    Kannada:
    Malayalam

    I have not heard of Kotu. I am sure it is not Kondaikadalai. Buckwheat is good for blood pressure. I need to buy this. Let me know.

    Regards,

    Ananth

    Hi Good work.
    I have not heard of word ' Kuttu' in Telugu for Buck Wheat.
    No shop keeper was able to decipher the word Kuttu in Telugu. I think, this word needs correction, probably
