Norwegian rye bread is so hearty, you only need one slice to make a sandwich! This isn’t a Scandinavian bread, but I do like the density the rye flour gives this loaf. The spices add a fun twist and make the bread even more fragrant and delicious when toasted. But it would also make for a great matpakke! Enjoy! -Amanda
