How to keep bread fresh for a long time – tips
- If you bought warm bread – wait until it has cooled completely. Do not pack it while it is still warm, or the product will spoil quickly.
- Different kinds of bread should be stored separately since each has its own microflora.
- Do not cut the bread from the end but from the middle. This way you can extend its shelf life.
- Put a quarter of a raw potato or apple next to the loaf. Then it will not spoil for a long time.
- You can also put a small bag of salt next to the loaf. Salt draws moisture out of the bread and keeps it fresh longer.
