Bread - Rye
Second to wheat, rye bread is the most commonly made bread. Rye bread contains less gluten than bread made from wheat (although it does have some). The bread therefore is heavier than wheat bread. Rye bread is darker in colour than most other breads. There are several different types of rye breads, including light rye, dark rye and pumpernickel. It is often made with ground caraway seeds and has a lovely slightly sour flavour.
