OPERATING YOUR BREVILLE BREAD MAKER - BEGINNER’S GUIDE
14. Slice the Bread
a) When the bread has cooled sufficiently, place the bread onto
a firmly seated breadboard.
TIP
Cool bread for a minimum of 20 minutes (preferably
longer) before slicing it. This allows the steam to escape.
The exception is yeast free breads. If you wish to serve
bread warm, wrap it in foil and re-heat in the oven.
b) Ensure the paddle is not in the bottom of the baked bread
loaf and slice using a serrated bread knife or electric knife. A
standard flat-bladed kitchen knife is likely to tear the bread. For
rectangular slices, place the loaf on its side and slice across.
15. Store the Bread
Store unused bread tightly covered at room temperature for
up to 3 days. Sealable plastic bags, plastic containers or a
sealable bread box work well. Since homemade bread has no
preservatives, it tends to dry out and become stale faster than
commercially-made bread. For longer storage, place bread in a
sealable plastic bag, removing any air before sealing, then place
in the freezer. Bread may be frozen for up to 1 month.
