Dark bread is a true delicacy made from wheat and rye flours, complemented by caraway seeds and bread spices. Top it all off with buttermilk and honey, and bake for just over an hour. You’ll have baked a tasty and very healthy loaf, as dark bread is slower to digest and keeps us feeling full for longer. Try this simple recipe and enjoy the combination of flavours, topped with your favourite Argeta.
