Frequently asked questions
How can I tell if crispbread is wholegrain?
Check the wholegrain label and ingredients list on the packaging. According to the Netherlands Nutrition Centre, a cracker can only be called ‘wholegrain’ if all the flour used is wholegrain. Then compare the nutritional values per 100 g.
How should I store opened crispbread in a biscuit tin?
Follow the storage instructions for the specific product and use a clean, dry tin that closes securely. Albert Heijn advises storing AH Knäckebröd volkoren in a sealed container after opening. The Bolletje variety reviewed should be stored in a dark, dry, sealed place.
Is wholegrain rye crispbread gluten-free?
Don’t assume it is: the Wasa, AH and Bolletje varieties reviewed list cereals containing gluten. If someone sharing the supplies needs to avoid gluten, check the current allergen information for each product individually.
Does all crispbread in the Netherlands contain iodised baker’s salt?
No, you can’t assume that based on the product category. The Netherlands Food and Consumer Product Safety Authority explains that iodine compounds may be present in bread substitutes through the use of baker’s salt. For the ingredients in a specific crispbread, check the current label or ask the manufacturer.
