About Rye flour, medium
Rye (Secale cereale) is a hardy cereal grain in the grass family, closely related to wheat and barley but tough enough to grow in cold climates and poor soils where other grains struggle. It carries a distinctive deep, earthy, slightly sour flavor that defines the dense, dark breads of Northern and Eastern Europe, from pumpernickel to the classic caraway-studded rye loaf. Rye is a wholesome whole grain, rich in fiber - especially soluble fiber - along with manganese, magnesium, and phosphorus, and it tends to be more filling and slower to raise blood sugar than wheat, though it does contain gluten.
Beyond bread, rye is rolled into flakes for hot porridge, cooked whole as chewy berries in salads and pilafs, and malted to make rye whiskey and certain dark beers. Its lower gluten and sticky pentosans make for a denser, wetter dough that many bakers ferment as sourdough for the best rise and flavor. Store rye flour and berries in an airtight container in a cool, dry place, or refrigerate the flour to keep its oils fresh.
