How to Slice Our Bread

A. Allow Bread to Cool Before Bagging in Plastic

If you bag your bread in plastic while it is still hot, condensation will form inside the bag. This is not good. It's best to eat the bread hot, then bag whatever's left (if any) when it's stone cold.

B. Discover the Joy of Slicing Your Own

Use a good knife. With gentle sawing motions, cut the bread in a herringbone pattern, as shown here:

If you are a bad slicer at first, be patient. Try changing your stance or your grip. Keep your eye on the ball and keep practicing. Soon you'll be slicing like the pros!

C. What You Can Expect

We use no preservatives, but your bread should keep for at least a week at room temperature. We do not recommend storing bread in the refrigerator. However, it's perfect for freezing since it contains no fats or oils (Do not freeze hot bread). Use any method for warming except the microwave. Ovens are good, toaster ovens even better.
