How do I store bread?

Our breads are all natural and do not contain chemical preservatives so they will remain delicious for 3-4 days. Spoilage is quicker in high heat and humidity, so breads keep longer in non-summer months.

Store bread at room temperature. Refrigerating bread actually increases the staling process and dries out the bread.

The best place to store bread is in a dark, dry place such as a breadbox or cupboard. Clay breadboxes are particularly good. Alternatively, a closed paper bag or a sealed plastic bag makes a good inexpensive substitute.

If you are going to be using the bread for a while before re-storing it, place the cut side of the loaf face down on a flat surface to keep the inside soft and the crust firm.

Sliced bread dries out much faster than whole loaves, so only slice as much as you plan to serve. The crust of an un-sliced loaf helps seal in freshness.

Artisan (hard crust) breads should be left in the paper bag provided. Putting Artisan breads in a plastic bag will make the crust soft.  To re-fresh bread from a plastic bag, wrap in foil and put into a 400 degree oven for 15 minutes.
