I either reuse the clip or twist and tuck it if there’s no clip. I don’t understand why I’d use extra stuff for this like my own clips or rubber bands
Let's put an end to the discussion; what is the best way?

I’m with you, either lawful or chaotic neutral is the way. Everyone else is trying to hard or not trying hard enough.

The box being “good” is wild. That is where bread goes stale unseen and uneaten. Its gotta be near the top of pointless kitchen things that only people with more money then sense have.
CauseUnknown@lemmy.today 10 hours ago
A bread box can be good for packing bread or sandwiches that you want to protect from being squished, like when camping for example.
M0oP0o@mander.xyz 10 hours ago
That is not a bread box, more of a travel bread case. I use one for eggs and bread stuff when camping as well. But this… thing is a counter bound thing that is heavy and artsy.

Twist and tuck all day erre’day
MutilationWave@lemmy.dbzer0.com 14 hours ago
All day until I started steady living with a woman. The twist tie or whatever must be attached at all times.
Many years later we got a cheap plastic bread box and I gotta say it’s awesome. You can twist and tuck and the bread stays good even longer.

I have never in my entire life seen an actual bread box, I thought they were a thing from England or something
someguy3@lemmy.world 23 hours ago
My grandma used one. Personally I think the real function was to keep mice from eating your bread, but that hasn’t been a problem for a long time.

English here. Anyone I know with a bread box use it in combination with one of the others. I have one, so we’re Bread Box + Twist and Tuck.

How else to store real bread?
So not just the sandwich/toast bread, that comes in plastic bags, but real bread, with a crust and in plastic wrap it would lose its crust, but without any protection, it dries out.
It’s a delicate balance act, where paper and a bread box seem to work bestanachrohack@lemmy.world 20 hours ago
I think most people just leave it in the plastic bag, but personally I have a bread bag that breathes so the crust doesn’t become spongey

My grandma had one. Growing up we just kept our bread & bagels in the microwave.

Gf does this with baked goods. It’s awful for me because I microwave a lot and don’t always remember to put stuff back and it gets stale.

Cutting off the top of a bottle and jamming the bag through the lid to seal it.

You cut the head off a bottle so you have the screwy-bit. Then you pull the open end through the bottle-Head and screw the lid on.

What about reusing the bag clip plus the twist and tuck method?
DizzoMyNizzo@lemmy.world 12 hours ago
You want to know what bothers me with this chart? What has always bothered me, is it does not mention the twist-tie that comes with the bread when purchased.
Where is it? Where.
P.s. if you say it’s the clip, that is clearly a chip bag clip, meant for chip bags. That clip does not come with the bread bag.
P.s.s. Make the FUCKING TWIST-TIE that comes with the bread true natural. Any deviation from it becomes a different part of the chart. Fuck off rubber band method. Replace the bottle cap method. (Who uses the bottle cap + ring method anyway? That should be in the ‘psychopath waisting energy and justifying it with internet logic’ level of evil category.)

Teepo@sh.itjust.works 10 hours ago
At least where I’m from (Canada), bread comes with a clip holding the bag shut, not a twist tie. “Re-using the clip” means the clip the came with the bag. You can see that it’s a different shape in the picture. This would be the equivalent of re-using the twist tie, if that’s how the bread is packaged where you live.
scheep@lemmy.world 7 hours ago
always using a bag clip. Reusing the bag clip if it needs to be eaten soon (e.g. at a party) since it’s less of a fuss to remove it.

You’re going to be opening that package often over a short period. I don’t think it’s useful to tie it down too tightly, and i especially don’t think it’s useful to introduce accessories (clip, bottle hack), you’ll have to deal with them every single time you open the bag.
It’s also just a fucking bread bag, you don’t need to secure it so firmly.
Twist and tuck or just tucking, maybe tying a knot if it’s going to get jostled a bit (going camping)

The bottle “hack” sounds insane, what a waste of time that is. Although I have seen a lot of things called hacks seem to be like that now, just extra steps that waste time.

Step 1: get some real bread

For real. I recently discovered that the bakery at the chain supermarket across the street from me sells giant loaves of sourdough for about a dollar less than even the “budget” brands in the factory-made bread aisle. Not going back.

Step Sigma: Bake your own bread
It’s way easier than you think it is to make a basic loaf of yeast-based, white bread. I had the recipe memorized for a few months while I was first getting into it.
iiffy on amounts but it ain’t many ingredients Bread Flower 4 cups Yeast Honey (oh yeah, son) Salt One Egg
Level 2: Add more honey, slightly less yeast and toss brown sugar, cinnamon and nutmeg in melted butter in it while rolling.
bonus round: add raisins
wieson@feddit.org 8 hours ago
Hey, I really appreciate your comment and I hope you have all the fun in the world with the recipes that you like.
But I have to be honest, this is not the bread I’m talking about. I’m really sorry, I don’t want to be your opponent.
I have baked a few breads and sugar or honey is not needed to get the yeast going. That’s a misconception I’ve encountered before, talking to a US-American. What you described sounds lovely, but (for me) it goes into the direction of brioche, milk bread, Hefezopf (yeast braid) and other sweet breads bordering on cake.
Real bread is: flour, water, sourdough, industrial yeast (optional), salt, spices (optional// caraway, fennel, coriander).
The second trigger point: flour.
I’m again sorry to offload this unto you, but I have to speak my piece.
What is bread flour? The nomenclature is meaningless, but that’s the fault of the market. I need to know from a flour, which grain it comes from (wheat, rice, maize, spelt, rye, dinkel) and how much of the rind is still in it (how dark it is or how white). Protein content is a bonus.
Just as a positive send off: I love raisins and sweet breads with raisins (Hefezopf).

Since most of them are not airtight they suck like hell and they heat up in the summer to make a mold heaven. Some of them have gaps larger than a London subway station.

Htf does the bottle cap work
capuccino@lemmy.world 14 hours ago
you cut the top of a plastic bottle with a knife or any kind of cutter, as you got the top, you got the part that have a screw cap, so, the next you have to do is make the bag go trough the hole, turn back the plastic and the close it with the screw cap.

I tuck and put in breadbox. Naked in breadbox doesnt last long and it dries out. Tuck is easy to do, to undo and gets the job done as good as anything else when combined with a breadbox.
AFKBRBChocolate@lemmy.world 18 hours ago
Maybe it depends on climate, but bread left out where I am gets moldy way before it gets stale. The best solution is to keep it in the freezer (in a bag, and any of those methods but CE would probably be fine). Weeks later, the bread is still soft and send fresh. Bread thaws unbelievably fast. If I’m making a sandwich, I take two slices out and put them on a plate separated. Usually by the time I’ve got the other ingredients ready to go, the bread is thawed. If you’re toasting the bread, it can go straight from freezer to toaster. If you’re making sandwiches to take to work or school, you can just make them on the frozen bread.
GoodLuckToFriends@lemmy.today 12 hours ago
This is the way. I rarely eat bread that isn’t at least warmed, so the only issue with the frozen bread is the effort it sometimes takes to separate slices.
oppy1984@lemm.ee 10 hours ago
Well for me it’s the twist-tie until I get down to the last few slices then I just spin the bag and fold it back over itself.
Why the twist-tie wasn’t listed is beyond me since I’ve never seen a store that didn’t have them as the majority of closure mechanisms.
Also, bottle cap? I honestly have no idea what that’s about.
