Artisan bread baker Simo Kuusisto is proud to bring you Nordic Breads, his bread line featuring organic Nordic whole grain rye. Available now for the first time in the United States, these breads are known for their healthy nutrients and dense nature. In Scandinavia, rye has been a vital dietary staple ever since the Stone Age. Leavened with an authentic sourdough starter, whole grain rye bread has long been a staple of the Finnish table, prized for its delicious sour flavor as well as its low gluten content, which creates a hearty, dense loaf that stays fresh tasting longer than wheat bread.
