About Reissari

Reissari is a hearty Finnish bread, traditionally made with whole grain rye flour, a touch of molasses or dark syrup, and buttermilk. Known for its dense texture and robust flavor, this bread has roots in Nordic cuisine, where rye is a dietary staple due to its resilience in colder climates. Reissari offers a rich source of dietary fiber, supporting digestive health and providing long-lasting energy. The molasses adds a hint of sweetness without overwhelming its wholesome taste, while buttermilk lends a subtle tang and contributes to its tender crumb. Low in fat and free of refined sugars, Reissari is often enjoyed as a nutritious accompaniment to soups or cheeses. However, due to its density, portion sizes should be moderate, as it is relatively calorie-rich. Suitable for vegetarian diets, this fulfilling bread showcases the simplicity and health-conscious approach of Finnish culinary traditions.
