Himalayan Rye Grains

About 

Rye (Secale cereale) is a grass grown extensively as a grain, a cover crop, and a forage crop and is a member of the wheat tribe. Rye has gained worldwide popularity due to its distinctive flavour. Its ability to withstand cold weather conditions better than other grains has ensured that it remains a staple in Eastern European countries and Scandinavia. Rye is rich in dietary fibre and iron. It is a nutritious source of antioxidants and nutrients. Rye is not gluten-free but contains lesser gluten than wheat.

A popular grain and staple in Eastern Europe, it grows just as easily in our Himalayas. Our Rye is farmed at altitudes as high as 4,400 meters. This magical grain grows in much poorer soils than those necessary for most cereal grains and is hence grown organically by default. Rye plant also has superior tolerance to cold than most other grains.
