Dark Rye Bread
Dark Rye Bread is a dense, often slightly sour loaf common across Northern and Eastern European cuisines; it can be made as a simple dark rye, a sourdough rye, or a pumpernickel-style bread and is prized for its robust flavor and long shelf life. Nutrition-wise, Dark Rye Bread is a good source of dietary fiber, providing about 5.8g per 100g, which helps with fullness and steady blood sugar responses; it also supplies modest protein and several trace minerals such as manganese and selenium. Because rye is hearty and filling it can be a smart base for savory toppings, though it generally offers moderate protein quality compared with animal foods and relatively low levels of antioxidant plant compounds compared with fruit and vegetables.
