Bread Storage
Store unused bread tightly covered in a plastic bag at room temperature for up to three days. If weather is hot and humid, store in the refrigerator overnight.
For longer storage (up to one month), place bread in a tightly covered container in the freezer.
If you store the bread in the refrigerator, leave it out to bring it to room temperature before serving.
Since homemade bread has no preservatives it tends to dry out and become stale faster than commercially made bread.
Leftover slightly hardened bread may be cut into 1.3 cm (half inch) or 2.5cm (1 inch) cubes and used in favourite recipes to make croutons, bread pudding, or stuffing.
