Cereal of rye

Cereal rye grows rapidly in cool weather and forms a dense, tall stand with a more extensive root system than other cereals. Among the cereal, it is the most cold tolerant and is one of the best species to use if planting is delayed until late fall or winter.

Rye is a cereal grass that is second only to wheat in world popularity for bread baking. It has strong hearty flavor in bread and as a cereal.  Crisp bread also made from rye flour, often whole meal rye, possibly with some wheat flour added, with or without yeast leavening.

Pumpernickel is also produced from 100% rye meal, using the sour-dough process. It is distinctive due to the very long baking time involved - between 18 and 36 hours.

Rye flours are used occasionally in snack type crackers. A very light rye has been recommended for use in soda crackers and some cookies as partial replacement for wheat flour.

Rye flours are also used in some pancake and waffle mixes to produce a special flavor. In the United States, one of the main uses for rye is rye whisky.

Rye flours are used as fillers for sauces and soups. Rye is also flaked to make a hot breakfast cereal.

Rye contains B-complex vitamin, protein, calcium, iron, magnesium, phosphorus, and potassium.
