You made bread with rye, too.

A. 1

Rye is a completely different species, although similar to wheat.
Since the elasticity is less than that of wheat, bread is made by mixing it with flour rather than using rye alone.
Rye contains abundant carbohydrates, protein, potassium, and vitamin B, so it is easy to digest.
It is also rich in dietary fiber to prevent constipation.

It is a different variety from flour, although it is used to make rye bread or snacks.
It's more of an oat than wheat.
