How To Cook?
Rye is a whole grain used primarily for flour in bread recipes. It is also used in alcohol production like beer,
whiskey, and vodka. It can be eaten whole as boiled Rye berries or rolled flakes, like oats.
To Cook, it takes 1 part grain to 2 parts water. First, rinse the rye berries (grains). Then bring the water to a boil.
Add grains. Cover and simmer until water is absorbed. Fluff with fork and let stand 5 minutes. To speed up cooking time,
soak grain overnight before cooking it.
Taste
When cooking with this whole grain, particularly a Rye bread recipe, choose dishes that will be complimented by its bitter taste.
Shelf-Life
It will store for several months if
stored properly. However we don't recommend storing it yourself because Rye is
susceptible to the ergot fungus. Ergotism can cause mental and physical harm. If you like this whole grain then be sure to
only purchase products that have been processed and packaged properly.
