Now, during this pandemic, one way to preserve any extra bread when you can get it is to freeze it. My family and I eat three types of bread: English muffins, 12-Grain, and Honey wheat. The brands and the exact kinds haven't been available recently, but what I was able to buy is close enough. I was able to get a few extra loaves so I froze three of them; one of each kind. As I need more bread I just take out about a third of a loaf at a time and let it thaw out overnight. That way there is no spoilage.
Going into a survival mode requires a different kind of thinking. Don't just think about one item at a time. How else can I preserve some of this extra bread? If you make French toast and freeze them like I mentioned yesterday, you've not only preserved eight slices of bread but also four eggs.
This morning's breakfast: Orange juice, from frozen concentrate; coffee with milk from two frozen milk ice cubes; two cinnamon French toasts from the freezer, thawed and heated up in the toaster; and two previously cooked, frozen sausage patties, thawed and heated in the microwave.
Tomorrow, “Got Bacon?”
