Ever wondered what happens when you throw bread into the freezer?
Freezing bread changes that. It turns one loaf into a longer-lasting supply that can be used gradually without pressure.
The best results come from freezing bread as soon as possible, while it is still soft and fresh. If the loaf is already stale before freezing, the freezer will not restore its original quality. It only helps preserve the condition the bread is already in.
For easier use, it is helpful to separate slices before freezing so they do not stick together. A freezer-safe bag or airtight container can help prevent freezer burn and keep the bread from absorbing odors from other frozen foods.
