Breakfast porridge: You can cook the berries down into a hot breakfast cereal, similar to steel-cut oats.
Side dish: Serve them as a nutritious side in place of rice or other grains.
Soups and stews: The cooked berries add substance to soups and stews.
Milled into flour:
Artisan bread: The flour from Ryman rye is used to make hearty, well-structured loaves with a distinctive flavor.
Sourdough starter: It can be used to feed a sourdough starter, making it more active.
Baked goods: For a deeper flavor and color, the flour can be added to recipes for cookies, brownies, pastries, and pancakes.
Sprouted:
The whole berries can also be sprouted.
Fermented and distilled:
Ryman rye is used by distillers to make distinctive whiskeys.
Agricultural uses
Because Ryman is a hardy variety of rye, it is also used for agricultural purposes.
Forage: It serves as a food source for livestock.
Erosion control: The plants are used as a cover crop to prevent soil erosion during the winter.
Crop rotation: Farmers often use it as part of a regenerative crop rotation, which enriches the soil for future plantings.
Nutritional benefits
Like other rye berries, the Ryman variety is packed with beneficial nutrients.
High in fiber: Rye berries contain high levels of dietary fiber, which aids digestion and can help regulate blood sugar.
Rich in minerals: They are an excellent source of minerals such as manganese, magnesium, phosphorus, and iron.
Source of protein: The grains contain a good amount of plant-based protein.
Contains antioxidants: Rye berries are rich in compounds that protect cells from oxidative stress.
