Storage Tips
Frisco, due to its composition, tends to dry out faster than traditional bread. Store it in an airtight container or resealable plastic bag at room temperature to maintain its freshness for a few days. For longer storage, freezing is recommended. Wrap the loaf tightly in plastic wrap and then aluminum foil before freezing to prevent freezer burn. When ready to use, thaw at room temperature or in the refrigerator before slicing and serving or toasting.
