<![CDATA[#TipOfDay Do you use things that are made to go with other items but now you are using for something else entirely?]]> Do you use things that are made to go with other items but now you are using for something else entirely? I’ve found great deals on bread, English Muffins and other bread products. (It’s the sales for Easter that brought super low prices) I’ve never been successful at freezing bread but I’ll try again. In the meantime I’ve got a white metal rack meant to hold shoes, but perfect for bread products. It’s high over the large metal storage rack for extra storage and kitchen items.This way I don’t sacrifice counter space to bread.

She found that just leaving them out the night before with the bag unzipped around a quarter inch does fine and no need to add a separator...

I like this idea! Now I’ll see if any freezer ziplock bags I have will hold just 6 pieces. That’s right for us. I read that if I put parchment paper between slices it will help separating the bread slices to thaw. Thanks Paul!

My wife freezes her bread in zip lock baggies, usually 4 slices to a baggie. She just pulls a baggie out at night and by morning it is ready... works great for bread types that aren't a staple daily bread.
