Steps:
- In a small bowl, dissolve coffee in 1/4 cup warm water. In the bowl of a stand mixer, combine remaining 1 3/4 cups plus 2 tablespoons warm water and molasses. Sprinkle yeast over top, stir, and let stand 5 minutes.
- Add honey, flours, cocoa, and salt to yeast mixture. Attach bowl to stand mixer fitted the dough-hook attachment and beat on low speed 1 minute. Increase speed to medium-low and beat until dough is smooth and slightly tacky, about 3 minutes (or knead by hand 15 to 20 minutes).
- Transfer dough to a lightly floured surface; knead by hand, turning dough over, 4 to 5 times before shaping into a ball. Transfer dough, smooth-side up, to a lightly oiled large bowl. Cover with plastic wrap; let rise in a warm place until doubled in volume, 1 1/2 to 2 hours.
- Turn dough out onto a lightly floured surface and divide in half. Set one half aside, loosely covered with lightly oiled plastic wrap. Shape remaining half into a 9-inch rectangle, with a short side parallel to work surface. Fold top third of dough towards center, then fold bottom third of dough on top, pressing gently to seal. Turn dough 90 degrees and repeat folding process, pinching seam and sides closed. Place seam-side down and roll dough back and forth with palms of hands to form a loaf about 12 inches long with tapered ends. Repeat shaping process with remaining half of dough. Sprinkle a clean cotton cloth with cornmeal and place loaves on top, spacing about 6 inches apart. Loosely cover with lightly oiled plastic wrap and a clean kitchen towel. Let rise in a warm place 45 minutes.
- Meanwhile, preheat oven to 400 degrees, with a pizza stone on rack in lower third and a skillet or baking pan on lowest rack, 30 minutes. Transfer loaves to a pizza peel or unrimmed baking sheet dusted with cornmeal. Brush tops with egg white. Using a lame (baker?s blade), razor blade, or serrated knife, make four diagonal cuts, 1/4 to 1/2 inch deep, across each loaf. Slide loaves from peel onto stone. If not using a stone, slide loaves onto a parchment-lined baking sheet dusted with cornmeal. Quickly pour boiling water into preheated skillet to create steam. Bake until loaves are dark brown and hollow-sounding when tapped on bottoms, about 30 to 40 minutes. Transfer loaves to a wire rack; let cool completely.

ONION BREAD FOR THE ABM
From Electric Bread. A little bit different from others I've tried, and very good. The smell is divine. The original had 1 teaspoon of poppy seeds, but I didn't think they did much for the recipe. You can certainly add them if you wish. You can also use 1 tablespoon onion paste instead of onion powder. Time will vary according to your machine.

Tips:
- Use fresh ingredients: The fresher the ingredients, the better the bread will taste. This is especially true for the yeast, which should be active and bubbly.
- Measure your ingredients accurately: This is important for any baking recipe, but it's especially important for bread. The wrong proportions of ingredients can result in a dense, heavy loaf of bread.
- Knead the dough properly: Kneading the dough helps to develop the gluten, which gives bread its structure and elasticity. Be sure to knead the dough for at least 5 minutes, or until it is smooth and elastic.
- Let the dough rise in a warm place: This will help the yeast to work its magic and cause the dough to double in size. A warm place to let the dough rise is in a sunny spot in your kitchen, or in a turned-off oven with the light on.
- Bake the bread at a high temperature: This will create a crispy crust and a fluffy interior. The ideal temperature for baking bread is 375 degrees Fahrenheit.
Conclusion:
Black bread is a delicious and versatile bread that can be enjoyed in many different ways. It can be served as a simple slice of bread with butter or jam, or it can be used to make sandwiches, croutons, or bread pudding. No matter how you choose to enjoy it, black bread is sure to be a hit.
