Well, for instance, I have had tortillas that got pretty stiff.

And simply steaming them for ten or fifteen minutes brings them totally back and they were fine.

I was thinking mainly about like a whole, uncut french bread. Just let it get hard as a rock.

I mean even the times I have done it unintentionally, with say a third of a french bread and it dries, after it dries, it never gets mold or anything else on it. Simply not enough moisture left in it to mold up.

I’m gonna try it! Will report back on the results, but a good test will take at least a month, let it dry for a week, save it for three or so, then try to re-steam it back to life.

Yes, I will be very curious as to what you think of it.

You might go faster with slices.

LOL, at the least, you will have bread crumbs for recipes.

In checking for pings, I found 2 of the cracker recipes in posts #6488 and 6470.

There should also be, before that I think, a post that had several in the one post.
