About Russian rye

Russian Rye bread is a hearty, dense loaf traditionally made from rye flour, water, salt, and a natural sourdough starter. Originating in Russian and Eastern European cuisines, its robust flavor and dark, slightly tangy profile pair well with savory dishes or as a standalone snack. Rye flour provides a rich source of dietary fiber, essential nutrients like manganese, and a lower glycemic index compared to wheat bread, making it a healthful option for maintaining steady blood sugar levels. Often free of added sugars, it's a wholesome choice for those seeking minimally processed bread. However, its dense texture may contain fewer calories per slice but is also heavier, so portion control is key. Russian Rye is a popular choice for bolstering digestive health while enjoying a taste rooted in centuries of culinary tradition.
