Buckwheat — which grows well in cold climates — has a solid place in French-Canadian cuisine. Buckwheat crêpes can be traced back to Brittany, and buckwheat pancakes are a regular part of a Canadian breakfast. These "noodles," made from savory crêpes, are a contemporary twist on this classic dish.
Cooks' notes:
·Crêpes can be made (but not cut into noodles) 2 days ahead and chilled, wrapped well in wax paper and then foil. Bring to room temperature before cutting.
·Chive butter can be made 3 days ahead and chilled, covered.
