Bread and rolls
Every year in the UK, we throw away one third of all the food we
buy - most of which could be eaten. Love Food Hate
Waste is a campaign from WRAP (Waste & Resources Action
Programme) that provides tasty recipes and top tips that help us
cut back on wasting food.
Kingsmill are supporting this campaign and here are our tips for
keeping your Kingsmill fresh and some ideas for what to do with
those last few slices.
Keep your Kingsmill Fresh
- Bread and rolls should be stored at room temperature: a bread
bin is the ideal place.
- Once opened, the wrapper should be kept loosely folded under
the loaf. You can also keep the end crust to keep the top slice
fresh.
- It's best not to store bread and rolls in the refrigerator,
except in very warm weather, as this makes them stale much
faster.
- You can freeze all of our products. It's best to freeze as soon
as possible after purchase. Rolls and bakery snacks can be stored
for 1 month and sliced wrapped bread will last for 3 months.
Bread that is a few days old is great for toast, making a tasty
snack to enjoy at any time of the day! Alternatively, it can be
used to make breadcrumbs and croutons, as well other handy
Kingsmill recipes for bread that needs using up.
