Pumpernickel wordt gemaakt van volkoren rogge door de hele roggekorrel te malen en heel langzaam te bakken tot het karamelliseert, wat het zijn kenmerkende smaak en kleur geeft.
The density is what gets me—each slice is heavy and moist, not dry like supermarket rye. You can taste that wholemeal berry in every chew, and it holds up beautifully to butter and cheese.
That slow caramelisation really comes through in the taste—deep, almost sweet, with none of the bitterness you sometimes get. I've been slicing it thin for open sandwiches and it holds up perfectly without crumbling.
The slice texture is dense and satisfying, exactly what I hoped for after the slow-baked caramelization mentioned in the description. Each loaf is a solid 500g, so one order genuinely filled my freezer for weeks.
