                Notes

                This bread keeps beautifully. Wrap it tightly in plastic wrap or store it in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days. If you want it to last longer, the refrigerator is your friend for up to a week. To freeze, slice the loaf first and place parchment paper between the slices. To reheat, a quick 15 seconds in the microwave brings back that just baked softness, or a few minutes in a toaster oven will give you those lovely crisp edges.
