2589.0. "Rye" by CPDW::ROSCH (Ray Rosch VRO6-2/B6 273.5710) Fri Aug 24 1990 19:32

    There isn't a keyword on flour so ...
    
    I want to make some dark rye bread yet the supermarket carries only the
    typical King Arthur, Pillsbury, Goal Medal etc. kind of 'white' or all
    purpose flour.
    
    So - where in the 3M area can I find a supplier of Rye, barley etc.?

2589.1Grist Mill in Sudbury.MILPND::DACOSTAMon Aug 27 1990 13:017
    When I visited the Grist Mill on the Sudbury, Marlboro line off of 
    Rte. 20 last year, they were grinding and selling rye, barley, and 
    corn.  I was told that they grind a different type of grain every 
    week.  If all else fails, you may want to take a ride there.

2589.2Some sourcesREORG::AITELNever eat a barracuda over 3 lbs.Mon Aug 27 1990 14:3112
    I've gotten rye and whole wheat at the local grocery stores in
    Nashua and Merrimack.  You can get some grains in the cereal
    aisle - cornmeal is sold with hot cereals, as are grits.  I've
    gotten other grains at health-food stores.  Don't know if the
    one in Marketplace Shops, DW highway, South Nashua is still
    there, but there's one in Northern Merrimack in the small shopping
    plaza south of Agway on rt 3.  There are probably health-food
    stores close to your town - try the yellow pages.  Also, don't
    overlook ethnic stores - the East-west store in Lamplighter had
    a lot of grain and bean flours last time I was there.

    I have found wheat, white, rye, and oat flour at Heartland, John Fitch
    Highway, Fitchburg, MA.
    
    
2589.4Shaw's?JURAN::TEASDALEMon Aug 27 1990 17:224
    Try the new Shaw's on Rt 85 in Hudson.  Their other stores have a good
    selection of natural foods so I assume this one does as well.

2589.5Shaws had several sorts of flourCADSYS::HECTOR::RICHARDSONTue Aug 28 1990 13:595
    I noticed that the new Shaws had barley flour (which is DELICIOUS) and
    oat flour, but I didn't offhand notice rye flour - all I needed in that
    section was unbleached regular flour, and I was in a bit of a hurry.

2589.6Countryfare Star-StowFSOA::LCHESTERWed Jul 17 1991 14:294
    I spent hours last weekend trying different supermarkets looking
    for rye flour and came up with it in Stow at Countryfare Star
    on Rte. 117.  Bought 4 bags and will freeze three.  It is hard
    to find.

    I didn't know you could freeze flour.  Does it change at all?

2589.8RANGER::PESENTIOnly messages can be draggedThu Jul 18 1991 10:033
    Concord Spice & Grain in Concord, Ma. on Thoreau St. across from the
    train station ALWAYS has rye flour, along with many other flours like
    rice, soy, corn, wheat, etc.
2589.9TLE::EIKENBERRYDon't confuse activity with productivityThu Jul 18 1991 14:189
  I've read that whole-wheat flours are more apt to spoil, and should be
kept frozen if they're not going to be used up quickly.  It takes me a while
to go through a 5-lb. bag, so I store mine in the freezer in Tupperware.
The flour doesn't change a bit.  I store whole wheat and rye.

  But then, of course, my father-in-law pooh-poohed the need for freezing
flour.

2589.10SEMOLINA (or semoulina, sp?) DECLNE::TOWLEWed Jul 24 1991 19:513
	I;m going to have to check out Harry's Market here in GA to see if they
	have semolina flour to use when making home-made pasta.  Any local
	Georgians know if Harry's carries this?
2589.11CSCOA1::ANDERSON_MDwell in possibilityThu Jul 25 1991 11:205
    
    I'd bet Harry's has it.  If not, I _know_ that the Farmer's Market
    does.
