Benefits: This flour helps you craft authentic dark rye loaves with a moist crumb and a richly aromatic crust. Stoneground processing preserves grain oils and a textured crumb that modern bakers value in traditional and creative recipes. When blended with other flours, it adds flavor depth and a distinctive rye character while maintaining workable dough.
Recommended use: Ideal for rustic rye breads, pumpernickel style loaves, and dense sourdoughs. Start by substituting up to 50% of bread flour and adjust hydration to 65-75% depending on the recipe. For best results, pair with wheat flour, allow longer fermentation, and bake until the crust is deep brown and the loaf feels firm.
