With two growing boys, bread disappears quickly, so freezing it helps \u201csave money,<\/p>\n
reduce food waste, and ensure we always have something ready.\u201d<\/p>\n
But freezing it incorrectly can leave slices \u201cdry, stiff,<\/p>\n
or covered in freezer frost,\u201d or stuck together in a solid block.<\/p>\n
The key is preventing air exposure and uneven freezing.<\/p>\n
The method begins when the bread is still fresh. If needed, slice it evenly,<\/p>\n
then place slices in a single layer on a parchment-lined baking sheet.<\/p>\n
Freeze uncovered for one to two hours so the slices firm up and don\u2019t fuse together.<\/p>\n
Once firm, transfer the slices to a resealable freezer bag and<\/p>\n
\u201cpress out as much air as possible\u201d to prevent freezer burn.<\/p>\n
For extra protection, double-bag or wrap the bag in foil and store it flat.<\/p>\n
When needed, remove only what you want.<\/p>\n
Bread can thaw in minutes or go straight into the toaster,<\/p>\n
keeping the texture soft and flavor intact.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
