I made them as the recipe said and they did not form patties, they fell apart. I used whole buckwheat- there was no paste after soaking, was I supposed to use a different form of buckwheat?
Sorry about that. It should be raw, green buckwheat, I updated that and also ideally they should be mashed a bit after soaking or even some of them can be pureed. I have updated the recipe.
