rye
Utica Bread Deli Rye takes approximately 24 hours to produce. It begins with a 100% rye culture that is fed the afternoon before the mixing. A touch of yeast is added to keep things moving as the rye doesn’t like to sit for long periods of time. While many a deli rye in this country uses little to no actual rye flour in the bread, we proudly use 30% whole grain Rye flour from Farmer Ground Flour in Trumansburg, NY.
The addition of caraway to rye breads began many years ago to aid in digestion, and discourage bloating caused by eating large quantities of the bread, as caraway is a natural digestive. We are careful not to overuse the caraway, simply using it to enhance, but not mask the flavor of the rye flour.
Deli Rye has an extended shelf life due in part to the rye culture, higher content of rye flour, and a higher hydration. This is a truly great,all around daily bread for the food lover.
