Cut from the tall, slender stands of @nodes/grain-plants/rye and bound at the stem, this sheaf stands a head above any other in the barn, its narrow heads drooping under their own whiskered weight.
Rye thrives in thin soil and cold wind where other cereals sulk. Threshed and milled, it yields a gray-brown flour with a darker, earthier character than its warmer-colored cousins, and the dense loaf it bakes into keeps a traveler fed for longer than its size suggests.


Rye Sheaf

A tall, slender sheaf with drooping whiskered heads.

Milled from @items/grain-sheaves/rye, this flour is darker than any other on the shelf — a grayish brown that looks faintly damp even when bone dry, and smells of the cold fields it came from.
It is sticky to work and slow to rise, and it repays neither hurry nor impatience. What it gives back is a dense, keeping loaf that outlasts every paler bread in a traveler's pack.


Rye Flour

A sack of grayish-brown flour, stamped with a drooping ear.

 — a grayish brown meal that clings to the stones and has to be worked loose.
Rye is oilier than barley and gums the quern if it is fed too fast. Cooks learn to crank it slow, and to accept that the mill will need a proper scrape afterwards.
