STUpendous Sourdough Bread Storage Guide

First 24–48 Hours

Place your loaf cut-side down on a clean cutting board or countertop.

Let it breathe naturally to protect the crumb and keep the crust crisp.

 

1–3 Days (Room Temp Storage)

Store in a cotton or linen bread bag, a paper bag, or wrap in a tea towel.

Avoid plastic! It traps moisture and ruins that beautiful crust.

​

3+ Days (Freezer Storage)

Slice the loaf before freezing.

Wrap slices in parchment paper or wax paper.

Store in a freezer bag with air squeezed out.

Toast slices straight from frozen or thaw wrapped at room temp.

​

What NOT To Do

🚫 Don't refrigerate! It speeds up staling.

🚫 Don't store airtight at room temp.

🚫 Don't pre-slice unless freezing.

​

Bonus Tip:

To refresh stale sourdough: sprinkle lightly with water, wrap in foil, and bake at 300°F for 10–15 minutes. 

 

Good Bread Deserves Good Care.
