If you also hate throwing away food, this article will probably make you happy, or at least those of you who still tend to buy a loaf of bread in its entirety and not some sliced bread.
Sher Lou, a British confectioner who teaches at the Good Housekeeping Institute, recently shared with her students a professional method that can "make bread fresh and new."
This aroused much curiosity, rightly so of course, and the method in question, already tried by many students and of course, also went viral, is immersing the whole loaf in water until completely wet, then re-baking in the oven for about five minutes at about 180 degrees.
But there is one condition, the loaf should be closed on both sides, i.e. if you ate from it and the water wetted the "white" of the bread, it will not help you so much and the method is not relevant for you.
Australian mother Judy also told on her Facebook page about a similar method.
"I often get stuck with bread that I do not freeze and the children do not eat it straight. It spoils and dries and my children shy away from it. My mother taught me that if you wet the bread and bake it for a few minutes again it becomes just like fresh."
Another tip she shared, by the way, is that the way that is good to keep the bread fresh is to actually leave it out, even though it may get into a state of mold faster, because that way most flavors are preserved, probably compared to freezing.
Were we wrong?
