A Better Use of $60 Rye Workshop!

Rye is having its time in the sun! Whatever we think about the “viral” $60 rye bread now being sold in NYC, we’re grateful for all the attention on one of our favorite grains. We’ve baked 100% rye breads for almost a decade now–a few hundred loaves a week, around 75k loaves in total. We love rye so much that we even wrote a full zine of recipes and stories about it, which you can find for free as a pdf on our website. Despite a scarcity of knowledge about baking rye bread on the internet, it is actually one of the simplest and least labor-intensive breads to make, even at home. Rye is even easy to mill into good flour using a tabletop mill, since it is softer than most wheats.

In our mini-workshop, you’ll learn the ins- and outs- of making the style of 100% rye bread that has everyone flustered. We’ll set you up with the sourdough starter you need, as well as flour and recipes to get you started on your thrifty baking adventures at home. When you leave, you’ll be able to make the “viral” bread yourself, using locally grown, organic grain, for pennies in flour, as it should be. 

Reclaim this humble staple food from capitalists and finance bros! Rye-de or die!
