About Russian black bread

Russian Black Bread is a traditional staple of Eastern European cuisine, made primarily from rye flour, which gives it its characteristic dark color and dense texture. It often includes ingredients like molasses, coffee, or cocoa powder for a richer flavor, alongside caraway, fennel, or coriander seeds for a savory aroma. Typically low in fat, this bread is packed with fiber due to its whole-grain content, making it a satisfying option that supports digestive health. While higher in carbs compared to lighter breads, it provides sustained energy and nutrients like iron and B vitamins from the rye flour. Some varieties may include added sugars or salt, influencing healthfulness, so moderation is key. Russian Black Bread pairs well with hearty dishes or simply as a base for spreads and toppings, offering both tradition and nutrition in every slice.
