Description:

• Our Rye Flour is 100% stone ground from organic Himalayan Rye grains. Rye (Secale cereale) is a grass grown extensively as a grain, a cover crop, and a forage crop and is a member of the wheat tribe. Rye has gained worldwide popularity due to its distinctive flavour. Its ability to withstand cold weather conditions better than other grains has ensured that it remains a staple in Eastern European countries and Scandinavia. Rye is rich in dietary fibre and iron.
