Bin your bread bin for a bamboo bag
Anyone who's ever transported a country bloomer or French stick will know that fresh bread doesn't like plastic, and paper has that annoying tendency to break. But now it seems our old friend bamboo has come to the rescue, and is being touted as the ideal fabric for storing bread.
With this in mind, you can now buy a specially-designed bag made from bamboo fabric, which being naturally water-absorbent and great at repelling bacteria keeps your bread fresher longer. Plus, it's much better for the environment to have a re-usable bag. The 'loaf pouch' pictured above will keep most standard sized loaves, and there's another one designed for baguettes.
