Westphalian pumpernickel is so much more than just ‘almost-black bread’ and is the perfect accompaniment to both regional and more exotic specialities.
As well as an ideal basis for classic, delicate, spicy or sweet flavours, pumpernickel is a diverse and flexible partner for sophisticated combinations: for example, it’s excellent with truffle pâté, fresh oysters and mussels, or perhaps as a creative and exceptional dessert, for instance candied in the form of a Westphalia-inspired twist on the Turkish delight.
On this website, you will find various suggestions for incorporating Westphalian pumpernickel into both modern and traditional cooking.
