Tips for Keeping Your Breadsticks Fresh

How do you store homemade breadsticks? ›

Breadsticks store best at room temperature. First, let breadsticks cool to room temperature then place them in an air-tight bag and squeeze out excess air. Cooling them first is important to you don't trap in excess condensation. You can also wrap breadsticks in foil.

After cooling, par-baked breadsticks can be stored in a plastic bag or a closed container at room temperature for up to two days. If the storage time is going to be longer than two days, I'd suggest refrigerating or freezing the packaged product shortly after cooling the par-baked product.

Bread also softens, at least the crust does. The crust, when freshly baked has a low moisture content. The inside of the bread has a high moisture content. So the crust gains moisture from the air and the inside of the bread loses moisture to the air and becomes stale.

Bake for approximately 15 minutes if you are reheating a whole loaf. Actual baking time will depend on the size of your loaf of bread so use your best judgment. If you are reheating slices, start with a shorter time, approximately 5-10 minutes, and check periodically to ensure the slices do not dry out.
