Commentaire sur Le Lévitique 23:14
וְלֶחֶם֩ וְקָלִ֨י וְכַרְמֶ֜ל לֹ֣א תֹֽאכְל֗וּ עַד־עֶ֙צֶם֙ הַיּ֣וֹם הַזֶּ֔ה עַ֚ד הֲבִ֣יאֲכֶ֔ם אֶת־קָרְבַּ֖ן אֱלֹהֵיכֶ֑ם חֻקַּ֤ת עוֹלָם֙ לְדֹרֹ֣תֵיכֶ֔ם בְּכֹ֖ל מֹשְׁבֹֽתֵיכֶֽם׃ (ס)
Vous ne mangerez ni pain, ni grains torréfiés, ni gruau, jusqu’à ce jour même, jusqu’à ce que vous ayez apporté l’offrande de votre Dieu; statut perpétuel pour vos générations, dans toutes vos demeures.
Rashi on Leviticus
וקלי means flour made out of tender ears (כרמל); this is called קלוי because they dry them in the oven and so become scorched.

Chizkuni
ולחם, “and the bread etc;” five species of grain when baked, qualify for the description “bread,” they are the ones that are liable to become chametz, leavened, if their dough are allowed to rise. “Baked dough” made from kitniyot, legumes, such as rice, maize, lentils, etc., the dough of which does not become leavened, does not qualify for the definition “bread” in the Torah. (Sifra)
