Heaping up too much sliced
bread on the dinner table is often
a sure way of consigning a few
extra slices to a dry fate, The
best way to prevent this is to
slice the bread at the table as
it is needed. Having slices may
even further lessen the waste.

Keeping bread fresh gives extra
assurance that it will all be eaten.
Wherever you store the loaf,
well-wrapped in moisture-proo1
paper, it will keep better if placed
in a well-ventilated washable box
in the refrigerator, which, by the
way, is an excellent storage place
for bread, as the cold temper
ature delays staleness and mold.
