The best place to store bread to keep it fresh for a long time: the most effective way

It often happens that fresh bread becomes stale the very next day after purchase, and then immediately begins to grow mold. And the problem is not in the baking itself, but in the way you store it.

The best place to store bread is described on the page of the Mirror online publication. And it's not a breadbox.

Don't store bread in a breadbox

A traditional metal breadbox is the worst place to store bread. It is in this environment that mold spreads most actively. Therefore, such a kitchen device is more of a decorative element in the kitchen.

Can I store bread in the refrigerator?

If you store bread in the refrigerator, the starch molecules crystallize. Therefore, this method is not suitable – you will only spoil the flavor and texture of the product.

The following are best for storing bread:

• cling film
• cloth bags

In such conditions, bread can remain tasty for about 4 days, according to research by Morror magazine expert Stef Kipling. The maximum that can happen is that the crust dries out a little, but this does not affect the taste.
