Oh My Gosh! I've just discovered...

OK, silly question....

How do you guys store your bread? The first loaf I made didn't last the day as I ate it all, but I've just made another and want it to last a few days.

I have a bread bin but no cake tin or anything.

What would you recommend?

Thanks

I freeze mine in slices the day I make it,I can not stand day old bread unless I'm using it as bread crumbs.

I've never done that before!

Do they still taste the same when defrosted?

It really does, like it has just came out of the oven

Excellent, thanks. I will start slicing and freezing

The whole breadmaking malarkey just sounds like too much hard work! My problem is a serious lack of space and lack of time. And an incredibly slow oven which takes twice as long as any recipe calls for. It takes me 5 minutes to pop to the shops for a loaf of Warburtons

However, I did make cornbread this weekend which was dead easy. I added a sliced red chilli and fennel seeds and it was delicious!

Bit for bit?

Here is how I make them,

250g Plain fl, 1tbs salt, 1tbs oil, 150ml approx warm water, pinch of baking powder and a pinch of prefered spice. I use celery salt or chilli powder.

Mix then split in to 8, dry fry until a bubble appears, flip for 2 minutes. Then spread with garlic butter, yummy, if you have been very good melt cheese on top on the grill

Sounds simple enough. <<off to rummage in kitchen cupboards>>
