FAQ
Q: Can I use only rye or spelt flour?
Yes, but the texture and flavor will differ. A mix provides the best balance of softness and structure.
Q: Can I make these rolls gluten-free?
Traditional rye-spelt rolls contain gluten. Gluten-free alternatives require a specialized flour mix.
Q: How do I get a really crispy crust?
Place a small oven-safe dish of water in the oven during baking to create steam, which enhances crust crispiness.
