Post by Nick CramerJoel,
What cheese would you recommend to smear on pumpernickle bread? It's been
many (over 20) years since I've done this and I believe I used Liederkranz
or Limburger. Thanks for any suggestions.

Imo, a strong bread supports a strong cheese. It really depends on what's
available to you. On the light end, you could put gobs of Cream Cheese,
onion
and salami. Or any of the Swisses.
Tilsit is a good sandwich cheese with a little more character (had some with
brats on Rye the other day.) Aged brick cheese would be good if you can find
it.
Limburger is widely available nowdays, but I've heard that Liederkranz
folded.
Yes, the full range goes beyond room-temperature Limburger. The new shop
down in Norman had some Stinky Bishop, which was pretty good. But the
best (to me) are the Trappist cheeses. Put some with onion on a strong rye
and a microbrew pale ale and I'm as close to bliss as these old bones can
get.
