Organic Whole Rye Flour is a popular ingredient throughout Northern and Eastern Europe. It is lower in gluten and has a stronger flavour than wheat flours and produces baked goods that are moist and dense. Rye flour is often combined with wheat flours for a lightly textured bread which still retains the distinct rye flavour.
