Powlett Hill Rye Flour
We only mill rye into a wholegrain flour, it can be blended
with other grains to produce a lighter loaf. Rye is
traditionally a heavier style of bread with a distinctive
flavour and texture. Rye flour also makes great crisp breads
for the home baker.
Rye is a cereal grain, closely related to wheat. It is mainly grown as a bread grain, for livestock feed or for distillation into grain alcohol spirits.
Rich in B-vitamins, rye contains generous amounts of iron, calcium, phosphorus and potassium and also has the highest amount of lysine of all grains.
As rye is lacking in glutenous proteins, bread made from rye is heavier, denser and usually darker than wheat bread. A lighter bread can be made by blending with a wheat flour.
