To store fresh bread, leave it at room temperature in a paper bag, or if cut, leave the cut side down on a bread board or shelf. The crust will stay firm and the inside soft.

Always turn the bread and slice it on it's side. This is the proper way to slice bread.

After two days, you may wrap it in a plastic bag to maintain freshness. To refresh the loaf, sprinkle or mist lightly with water and place it in a preheated 400° oven for 6-8 minutes or until crusty. You may also choose to slice and toast the bread for delicious results.

Refrigerating and micro-waving bread is not recommended.

Freezing: Bountiful Breads also freeze well wrapped in plastic, then wrapped in foil. Defrost at room temperature inside the plastic, then refresh as described above before eating.
