Have you ever tasted a true, traditionally baked, artisan organic sourdough bread? Now imagine the smell of freshly baked sourdough bread coming from your very own oven. Take & Bake bread from The Essential Baking Company comes in oxygen-free, Essential FreshSEAL™ packaging that allows you to keep your unopened, partially baked, organic bread fresh in your pantry for months without freezing it. You can enjoy fresh-baked organic bread when you want it. Now that’s revolutionary! Our sourdough bread is made the traditional way, using a natural starter, mother dough or “Mamacita” as we lovingly call it and only four organic, non-GMO ingredients; Organic Unbleached Wheat Flour, Water, Salt, Organic Malt. That’s right, we don’t add commercial yeast and our bread is naturally fat-free and sugar-free. Unlike other imitation sourdough bread, our true sourdough ferments very slowly for over 12 hours at a cool temperature which creates a more complex, distinguished taste.

Baking Instructions: Preheat your oven to 425 degrees. Remove bread from package and place directly on center oven rack. Bake for 8-10 minutes. Remove from the oven and serve warm.

No need to freeze or refrigerate it! Unopened Take & Bake lasts for months. If you don’t plan to bake and eat by the best-by-date on the back of the package, it is okay to freeze your Take & Bake. When you’re ready to eat it, bake frozen loaves at 425 degrees for 12-15 minutes. Turn off oven and let sit in the oven to finish for another 10 minutes. If you haven’t consumed the whole loaf, wrap the bread in a cotton bread bag, tea towel, paper bag, plastic wrap, or zip-top and store in a dry place for up to 2 days. You can store it in the refrigerator for up to a week. Refresh hard bread with a light spritz of water and a 400-degree oven for ten minutes. If longer-term storage is needed, freeze the loaf. When you’re ready to eat it, bake frozen or thawed loaves at 400 degrees for 12-15 minutes. Tip: Try cutting leftover bread into cubes and storing it in a zip-top bag in the freezer to use in French toast bread pudding, strata, or croutons.
