I am baffled that a site called "grub street" believes anyone is going to subscribe to their newsletter after zero free articles.
I had the same thought.. more power to them I guess ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Can't get Pumpernickel Bagels at all in London UK. It's a pity.
Luckily still present where I buy my bagels. I’ve only done it a few times but I do remember than rye flour makes a somewhat more difficult dough to handle.
I love an egg salad sandwich on a pumpernickel bagel! Also very good toasted with scallion cream cheese.
