Latvian rye bread
Typically, rye bread is baked from a mixture of rye and wheat flour, and this is only rye flour, and the kneading process is simple, and no malt, and no eggs, and yeast a bit. The taste of the bread just magical, sweet, caraway! Thick and sturdy crust, soft, but rather dense crumb and a strong aroma of cumin, which is characteristic for Latvian fragrant bread. Good and with butter, and with salt fish, and even jam. Recommend!
