Living about 35 miles away from the nearest grocery store, we usually buy three loaves of bread at a time and put it in the freezer until we're ready to use it. To make them last longer we individually wrap each loaf (still in it's original packaging) in the plastic grocery store bag we brought them home in. This seems to insulate the loaves from freezer burn. When we need a loaf, we take it out of the grocery store bag and lay the loaf upside down on the counter to thaw. This seems to help the edges of the bread slices to not be too dried out. By Sharon in Texas | |

I keep all kinds of bread and rolls in my freezer..First thing I do after bringing home is to open the wrappers, useing a long handle wooden or plastic spoon, is run a papper towel on the top and bottom of the item...Carefully remove all air possible and reclose the wrapper...Then freeze...After removing from freezer, thaw completely before opening. You will never know it was frozen.. | |

When I take the bread out of the freezer, I put it on a cookie cooling rack. This circulates the air all around it and when the bread thaws it is very fresh with no hard edges. | |
