Rye began as a tough weed in wheat and barley fields in what is now Turkey/Asia Minor. It was likely gathered and grown over 8,000 years ago. Rye has an earthy, slightly malty taste and strong health benefits. Half a cup of whole rye flour supplies about 1/3 of daily fiber needs, making rye one of the richest fiber foods.
It’s protein rich and supplies many minerals and B vitamins. Rye has long been used for bread; because it’s low gluten, rye dough are dense unless mixed with high-gluten flours. Dense but so healthy for you.
We sell freshly stone milled Organic Rye Wheat Flour for 29 cents an ounce = $4.64 per pound. You can upgrade to an amber glass mason jar with an air tight seal, sold separately (jar weight deducted; amber jar blocks light and UV to preserve nutrition).
Wheat berries stay good for up to 30 years if kept cool and dry. After milling, nutrients drop within 3–7 days, and whole wheat flour goes rancid in about 2 weeks.
