There are three different ways to store the bread you buy home. Different storage methods and time can be roughly divided into three ways: normal temperature storage, cold storage and frozen storage. No matter whether the bread is at room temperature or refrigerated, the shelf life is only 2 days (including the day of production), because 2 days is enough to completely age the starch, and it is not recommended to keep it frozen for more than two weeks.
? Room temperature preservation
Most breads with less sugar and oil are mainly flavored, including French bread, European bread, croissant, croissant and toast. Room temperature 18 to 25 degrees celsius.
? cold-store
Mainly prepare bread, including lettuce salad bread, red bean rice bread, sandwiches and so on. As long as the stuffing is rich in sugar and milk, or with perishable fruit or cream stuffing, it must be refrigerated regardless of the season, otherwise the water will be less and less, which will affect the taste.
? Low temperature storage
Bread suitable for freezing belongs to French baguette and European miscellaneous grains, because it lacks oil, spices and water content. Although low temperature will accelerate the aging of starch, when the temperature drops below 0 degrees Celsius, the aging effect of starch will be greatly slowed down, so it can be frozen for a longer time. However, it should be noted that only bread without stuffing is suitable for frozen storage.
There are also two preservation techniques to learn.
Plastic bag preservation method: Bread stored at room temperature can be directly packed in plastic bags of bakeries, or packed in self-provided sealed packaging fresh-keeping bags, which need a little ventilation and placed in a ventilated place. Don't put it in direct sunlight or places with more water, so as not to affect the taste of bread.
Plastic wrap packaging: both prepared bread and French bread in the freezer can be treated with plastic wrap, because plastic wrap takes up less space and can adjust the angle at any time according to the size of bread. Packaging with plastic wrap can also avoid the influence of other food flavors in the refrigerator on bread, and can block off odor. And a large number of coarse cereals or French bread can be sliced, which is convenient for packaging and preservation.
It is recommended not to freeze next to meat or seafood. On the one hand, I am worried that bread will absorb the taste of meat or seafood and affect the unique aroma of wheat. On the other hand, raw and cooked foods should be classified and placed in order to be safe to eat.
How to restore the flavor of iced bread 1? Normal temperature taste recovery method:
As long as the bread is taken out in cold storage, it is recommended to let it stand at room temperature for 20 minutes. After the temperature rises, spray water on the bread surface with a sprinkler, wait for 20 seconds, and then bake in the oven for about 5 minutes. 2. Freezing and reheating methods:
It is suggested that the bread taken out after freezing should wait for about 30 minutes at room temperature, then cover it with a slightly wet towel or wet paper towel 1 minute, wait for the bread to absorb some water, then preheat it in an oven at 180℃ for 5 minutes, and then use it at 90? 120 seconds, the taste can be restored to about 80%. Bread stored at low temperature will contain less water, so before putting it in the oven, you can put cheese or cheese sauce before baking. Using the hot air in the oven, the spread sauce can be absorbed into the bread faster and will be more delicious.
