You’ve just found the perfect loaf of When Pigs Fly Sourdough, and now you want to make sure it stays fresh. Here are some tips for storing your sourdough bread:
-
Room Temperature Storage:
If you plan to eat your sourdough within a few days, store it in a bread box, a paper bag, or wrapped in a clean kitchen towel. This allows the bread to breathe, keeping the crust crispy while maintaining the soft interior.
-
Freezing Sourdough:
If you have leftover bread, freeze it! Wrap slices or whole loaves in plastic wrap and foil before freezing. When you're ready to eat, simply thaw at room temperature or refresh in the oven for a few minutes to bring back that freshly baked flavor.
-
Reheating Sourdough:
To revive stale sourdough, spritz it with a little water and bake it at 375°F (190°C) for 10-15 minutes. It will become warm and crispy again!
