The most consumed food in the world is bread. It is a universal food product that not only saturates, but also strengthens the body, nourishes it, supports growth, regulates bowel function, and supports vital functions.
And this is an indisputable fact that applies to every nation, regardless of the characteristics of its national cuisine.
Bread comes in different types, but in general this food is the same in essence, since the ingredients in it are identical.
Regardless of how it is prepared or how it looks, good bread is healthy and necessary. It is not only an everyday food, but also a great option for pleasure.
However, an important condition for this is the storage of bread, which should be such that it remains fresh and fragrant. For this, the bread must have access to air. Closing it in a plastic bag is not the best solution for storing it.
When bread is deprived of access to air, moisture remains in it, it evaporates and the dough product becomes a very favorable environment for the development of mold and fungus.
How to keep bread soft and fresh longer
There are many tricks for storing bread, and it is useful to know at least some of them.
To keep it soft and fresh longer, add a piece of apple, a sliced potato or a little table salt to the bread bin.
How Do These Nutrients Affect Bread?
Apples and potatoes contain moisture. When cut, they begin to dry out. At the same time, their natural moisture evaporates from them and is transferred to the bread along with their aromas. Apple-scented bread is an interesting idea not only for lovers of aromatic fruits.
Table salt is a strong absorbent. It removes excess moisture and kills germs in the kitchen. Therefore, it is recommended to sprinkle salt in this room, which is exposed to moisture, odors and harmful substances that are released during cooking.
This simple and clever way to preserve bread is completely applicable to pasta as well.
