My mother, for years, has frozen bread and then defrosted it two pieces at a time in the microwave.
If you've ever seen the Albert Brooks movie Mother, that's her. She even said it was her when she saw it. She's even started writing novels in her old age after wanting to be a writer when she was a kid.
Freeze bread to keep it from going bad and thaw it as needed either at room temp or low heat in a toaster oven. Bread in the fridge just dries out.
We always freeze all our bread, we don't eat it fast enough for it to not go bad (is this a weird take??).
But yeah thawing bread in the microwave is roughhhh, we either use a toaster or just let it thaw at room temperature.
Same, I eat bread really slowly so it usually takes me a few weeks to finish a loaf. Don't really mind defrosting it, takes maybe twenty seconds in the microwave.
I fry my frozen bread in about a tablespoon of butter. Makes every sandwich delicious
This is the way
Oh I eat it fast enough. One day, one loaf. That is my reason for freezing it. SLOW THE BRED INTAKE BITCH like omg.
To be fair I bake my own bread, and I usually freeze half the loaf because without preservatives it goes bad fast, but thawing at room temp is fine. But store bread no.
Huh, when I bake bread, it normally doesn’t last the night. A bunch of hungry teenagers smelling bread baking a couple hours will do that
Hahaha that'll do it.
Yeah, we're talking store bread and thawing it in the nuker and immediately making a sandwich with it even though it's all soggy. It's so gross.
Never had problem thawing store bought bread before.
You have to put the bread in an airtight bag before freezing and let it completely thaw out in the bag before opening. This way the total moisture content within the bag will remain the same.
that is the way
I freeze all my bread and put it in the toaster to thaw. I don't want to eat fresh bread for two days and then the rest of the week the rest of the stale loaf.
The toaster makes a hell of a lot more sense than the microwave. She's eaten soggy sandwiches for decades.
I had family that did this as well.
You can put saltine crackers in the freezer and they won't freeze. They'll just stay crispy.
