## Description

Great River Organic Milling is located on the upper Mississippi River, in the heart of what is called the Hiawatha Valley. The natural beauty of the area is a constant reminder of the importance of our commitment to organic agriculture. Organic, or sustainable agriculture is more than the avoidance of chemical fertilizers and pesticides. An organic farm strives to protect our environment by building and maintaining healthy soil which, in turn, improves water and air quality. It has been shown that grain and other food crops grown in a healthy soil, resist pests and diseases better than conventionally grown crops and also contain more vital nutrients important to humans. Consuming organic foods promotes the health of individuals and the land on which it was grown. In supporting organic agriculture we promote the cycle of a healthy environment which includes the lives of microorganisms, plants, and humans. Most Great River flour is stone-ground. We believe the natural granite millstones contribute to the quality, taste and nutritional integrity of whole grain flour. Grain flowing into the stones becomes very thin, flat flakes which integrates all parts of the wheat immediately into the flour, allowing the flour to have more flavor. The cooler temperatures that occur during milling with stones allows important enzyme activity to continue. Protein levels are also be maintained. Our stone-ground flours are milled to order, to retain the nutritional value of the flour. Great River is Certified Organic by Quality Assurance International and Kosher approved. Obtaining our certification requires a yearly inspection of our milling facility and records to insure that our products meet industry standards.

Review: Makes an excellent loaf of rye bread even during learning curve - I just realized this is the 10th bag I purchased of 25 lb of dark rye organic flour. I think it deserves a review. I started making my own sourdough rye bread in 2017 after our German bakery closed. For months the results were a bit disappointing but certainly edible. I read a lot of recipes and watched a youtube video. Rye flour is dense and has less gluten than wheat flour so it helps to use recipes specifically for rye flour. King Arthur's website has some good recipes that call for adding a small portion of rye flour which I thik helps you learn to use this whole grain healthy flour. However, this flour really benefits from the addition of sourdough a long slow rise or preferment. Over the years I have gradually increased the amount of rye flour I use so the only white flour in my bread is the amount in 1 cup of my white sourdough starter. The German bakery told me they had to use some yeast to their bread dough but wouldn't tell me how much so I experimented and I use 2 tsp instant yeast. Here's my recipe if you want it. 1 cup white sourdough starter 1 cup rye sourdough starter 1 c water( I use spring water because our city water has chlorine and flouride which retard yeast) 2 c dark rye flour I mix this together and cover with plastic and leave for 12 to 24 hours at room temp It's bubbly and double in size after the 12 to 24 hours I add 1 Tbsp caraway( optional or use a different seed) 3 cups rye flour 2 tsp instant yeast 1 cup apple or orange juice 1 Tbsp molasses 1 tsp salt( we are on low sodium diet) Mix on setting 2 on my kitchen aid mixer for 6 to 7 minutes scraping bowl to incorporate all of the flour although for years I kneaded it by hand I pour this into an oiled 3.5 quart dutch oven Let rise about 2 hours till it comes almost to the top of the pot Carefully place in oven on a large cast iron skillet, pizza stone or pan so it doesn't burn the bottom cover with lid or tented aluminum foil if it's risen too much Bake at 425 for 30 minutes then reduce temp to 375 for 15 to 25 minutes till internal temp 210 F(important to invest a few dollars in an instant read thermometer) Remove from oven. Turn pot upside down while cooling. Store in a paper bag This dense bread is best the next day and for about a week though I put the paper bag in a plastic bag after a day or two and if it's still around after 4 days I store it in the fridge or slice and freeze I believe every recipe is flexible so make adjustments as desired. I have for the last 5 years!

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Is there any added folic acid ? I want to make sure this is just RYe**
A: We do not at folic acid to our products. In fact we do not add ANYTHING to any of our flours or grains. They are all 100% organic. Hope this helps Thanks for contacting us.

**Q: Hello, I purchased this flour on June 4th 2020 and it was rye flour. Did you change the item you are selling to dark rye?**
A: Light rye flour is generally a mix of white and rye flours, and dark rye is the equivalent of whole grain rye flour – it has all the bran and the germ in the flour and light rye does not.  The company probably wanted to clarify that the their product is whole grain.  This company only sells whole grain rye and other specialty flours.  They did not change.

**Q: How to make a good rye bread in bread machine using this flour?**
A: If you only want to use the rye flour, the bread will be very small, squished and heavy. This is what I do using my bread machine: I use 1.5 cups of rye flour, 1.5 wheat flour (of the same Organic Milling Company) and 1 cup all-purpose generic grocery store flour (I like Trader Joe's all purpose unbleached flour, but it doesn't have to be TJ'S). The all purpose flour is not as healthy, but it holds the bread together. If you skip it and use just 50 50 mix of rye and wheat flour, the bread may easily crumble. I also add 2 tsps of salt, 1 tsp of sugar, 1 Tbsp of oil and 2.75 tsps of Red Dry Yeast. The bread rises nicely and it's much puffier than bread made only from rye flour.

**Q: Is this orgainic rye flour bleched or unbleached?**
A: Have never heard of bleached rye flour.  This seems to be whole rye flour ...and absolutely perfect for  the currant/raisin pecan/walnut  caraway  rye bread recipe from The Inn at Little Washington Cookbook by Patrick O’Connell. I have made this recipe  for over 20 years, but do not salt encrust.  Bake in French bread pans if you have them.  Favorite size is “logs” no larger than 2” diameter .Enjoy!
