Larry wrote<\/strong>: I like to have toast in the morning and have gotten really tired of seeing the bread with green spots all over after a few days. We stored it in the bread bag it came in in the pantrach (Irish for pantry). I did some looking around and found out that a very old practice helped bread to last longer. That old family practice was using a “Bread Box.”\u00a0 I bought a bread box which was delivered yesterday. Let’s see how well it works.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Walter replied: <\/strong>We usually buy our bread from our friendly Amish baker, six loaves at a time because that’s the size of her pan, and freeze them. We keep the loaf we\u2019re working on either in the microwave (our bread box) or in the fridge. (She doesn\u2019t use preservatives.) I shall have to ask her how she stores it!<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n
