Black Forest Pumpernickel Bread

Here is my latest breadmaker creation: Black Forest Pumpernickel bread. How cool does that sound? It makes me think that the bread absorbed the deep and dark evening in the forest, that small trolls had been stomping about it, imprinting their little foot paths into the porous exterior. But perhaps if more knew the etymology of “pumpernickel”, less would enjoy this bold rye bread. Basically it translates to goblin fart in German. Oh, those Germans.
