Storing Homemade Bread?
I just made 2 loaves of homemade white bread. My question is : how do you ladies store your homemade bread?
(I know, I know... the Tupperware lady is asking about storing food!) Is it best to put them in a tight bag? Or in a container I can find that it will fight in? It's been a lonnnnnng time since I made homemade bread from scratch. Just can't remember what worked. --- ETA: OH! And is there such a thing as a bread slicer? Something that can help make even slices of bread??

Re: Storing Homemade Bread?
when I was growing up, my mom always stored bread in a leftover bread bag from store bought bread. We are gluten free and almost never buy bread. I usually store my loaves in a gallon zippy bag. Homemade bread, in my experience, doesn't store well long term. I usually only make a loaf at a time and we eat half while it is still warm and the rest within a day or so. If it is going to be longer than that I slice the bread and then store it in the freezer.

Re: Storing Homemade Bread?
I'm using recycled old bread bags for now, thinking about finding an old-fashioned bread box next time I'm at Goodwill , or ordering some bread bags from somewhere on the internet -I know urban homemaker carries them in lots of 100 or so. I've heard paper bags work well, also, if you use the bread within a couple days.

Re: Storing Homemade Bread?
Yeah --that jogged my memory. Tupperware used to carry an adaptation of the tall square modular mates that had a flip-top clear lid (not as airtight, enough to keep the bread from drying out) and a grate-type thing at the bottom to keep the crust from getting soggy.
