Serve cooked rye flakes with maple syrup and sliced bananas as a hearty breakfast cereal, or combine cooked rye berries with sliced fennel, tomatoes, and chopped basil for a delicious, unusual salad. Rye flour contains less gluten than wheat flour, so it won’t produce a well-risen loaf of bread without the addition of some higher-protein flour.
Rye is found in cereals and in baked goods like crackers and breads. It is also available flaked, cracked, or as a whole grain or flour. Dark and coarsely ground rye is called pumpernickel flour.
