Organic Rye Flour

What

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.

Served Best

Organic Whole Rye flour is a traditional ingredient in many breads, cakes, and pastries throughout Northern and Eastern Europe. The gluten in rye flour adds stickiness to the dough but lacks the elasticity of wheat flour gluten.

How To Cook

Organic Rye Flour should be used with high gluten flours such as whole wheat or unbleached white to increase rising ability when baking breads. Organic rye flour can be also used to make rye starters and sours.
