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.
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.
I fry my frozen bread in about a tablespoon of butter. Makes every sandwich delicious
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
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.
