Bread Care 101

How to Keep Your Sourdough Fresh and Delicious

Sourdough is a labor of love, and with the right care, you can enjoy it at its best for days—or even months! Follow these simple tips to preserve the flavor, texture, and quality of your bread.

Storing for Freshness

Enjoy Within 2-3 Days: For the best flavor and texture, enjoy your sourdough while it’s fresh.

Use a Paper Bag or Bread Box: Store your bread in a breathable paper bag or bread box to keep the crust crisp and the inside soft.

Avoid Refrigeration: Never store sourdough in the fridge—it can dry out faster and lose its signature texture.

Freezing for later

Freeze for Later: Sourdough can be frozen for up to 6 months. Store it in a sealed bag to prevent freezer burn. For easier use, slice the bread before freezing.

Reviving Frozen Bread:

  1. Thaw at room temperature for the best texture.
  2. Toast frozen slices on the defrost setting for a quick refresh.

Reviving Stale Bread

Oven Method: Sprinkle your loaf with a little water and bake at 375°F for 5-10 minutes to restore its crispy crust and soft interior.

Toaster Refresh: For slices, simply pop them in the toaster to bring back the perfect crunch and chew.
