I just took a class on Artisan Bread (peasant bread) and it is wonderful and easy! You can freeze this in a freezer baggy. Just thaw on the counter with a paper towel over the top, crust will remain crusty. After slicing, place sliced side down on the counter and cover loosely with a paper towel, bread will remain crusty outside, and soft on the inside. You can put it in a baggy, but crust won't remain as crusty as when you first baked the bread. Experimenting, poured olive oil into my slits and sprinkled with rosemary. Good! Good storage advice, Barb - thanks for sharing. PJH
