We are unlikely to be mistaken when we assume that bread is found in almost every home.

However, not everyone knows how to preserve the softness, freshness and aroma of this product for a long time, notes with regret the expert of the online publication BelNovosti, chef Yulia Arkhipova.

The result of improper storage is mold covering the loaves.

So, if you want your bread to stay fresh as long as possible, use the following tips.

Keep it clean

Wash your bread bin regularly and wipe it thoroughly afterwards to remove any crumbs or excess moisture.

Provide ventilation

The place where you store bread should be well ventilated.

Add absorbent

To absorb excess moisture, in addition to bread, you should leave a small container filled with salt, rice or another absorbent in the bread bin that will absorb moisture.

Avoid storing with other products.

Some foods left with bread (especially fruits and vegetables) can release moisture, which will accelerate the growth of mold.
