A cupboard for bread or a breadbasket in the people is not just a kitchen accessory. This is a very useful thing that will keep the freshness of bread and other flour products (biscuits, cookies, bagels ) for a long time. Such a box in itself has a simple case, a minimum of fasteners, but it does an excellent job of its functions.
Materials for the manufacture of cupboards for bread
Breadbask made of plastic - it would seem a versatile product: it is easy to care for, inexpensive. The main disadvantage is the toxicity of polymers and dyes, the structure is not strong and will crack at a strong mechanical impact. If the plastic has a smell, do not buy it, especially for storing products.
Wooden cabinet - the best option for storing bread. The basis is ecologically clean, odorless, low cost, attractive appearance. Design can be very different. Straight lines without extra decorations are suitable for the kitchen in the minimalist style, and patterns of flowers, fruits - for Provence. The disadvantages are the difficulties in care. After improper manipulation, the wood may start to rot or mold. It is better not to treat the surface with chemicals. Keep the product in a dry place. Wicker bread is more suitable for country dwellings . Making such a purchase, pay attention to the smell: willow rod and beret - that is, the product should also smell of wood, and not plastic.
A metal cabinet for bread costs more, but it shows itself well in operation. Stainless steel is resistant to acids, so it's easier to look after the model. Cleaning does not cause difficulties, the smell of metal will not be transferred to the product. Metal due to its properties creates a good protection from external factors, flour products are stored in such a "box" for longer. Metal construction will fit in almost any kitchen, at least it is in harmony with the sink. Minus - fingerprints are still visible on the stainless steel. Attention deserve and combined breadboxes, they combine in different proportions metal, wood, glass, plastic. If you want, you can get a storage cupboard in the trays.
Since the bread should be protected from drying, the less air gets inside, the better. Before purchasing, make sure that the lid is closed tightly. Tightness is an important criterion for choice.
Ovens for storage of bread
Breadbills are medium in size, designed for a small amount of content. They have different shapes and ways of opening. The more and more bread you buy, the bigger the product should be.
In modern kitchen sets, you can provide a shelf-cabinet for bread. Thus, you will save space on the countertop. Shelf will also be airtight. It is better that this part of the cabinet is divided into zones. The fact is that the plastic bag does not block the smell too much, so your sweet buns will be able to "pick up" the garlic smell. The presence of partitions or different shelves is a desirable condition for a small breadbasket, for a large swinging cabinet for bread is practically a requirement. Save space on the working area and a cabinet hinged for bread. This model is not very popular, but can fit into the kitchen quite harmoniously.
The preservation of the taste quality of flour products directly depends on the characteristics and quality of the breadcrumbs purchased. Some people think that you can get rid of odor or mold, or extend the shelf life of bread with the help of folk remedies: skins of lemon, pinch of sugar or salt, half of an apple or potato. In fact, if the breadbasket is of poor quality, then no folk advice will help you keep the flour products soft and tasty.
