My sister froze bread, but it always came out soggy and gross from condensation. Maybe it was the type of freezers we have in the U.S., but whenever you thaw things there's going to be condensation and that doesn't work well with bread.

- a1369209993 6y agoMight be a stupid question, but you are heating it all the way to toasting temperature, right? (Whether or not it stays there long enough to toast.) Because (at least IME) if you only heat it to room temperature, it definitely will end up soggy.
- Falkon1313 6y agoI did not know that you were supposed to do that. Like anything else from the freezer, I just let it sit out for awhile to thaw. I had never used freezers much except for things like ice cream or ice cubes, we always had fresh and/or canned food. To this day I don't really know how to make frozen food properly edible, but today I learned one new thing.
- dragonsky67 6y agoI'm thinking that there is something wrong with your freezer, or your bread. We freeze all our sliced bread pretty much as soon as it comes home from the baker. Want a sandwich, pull it out of the freezer, break free a couple of slices (they come free pretty easily) and let them defrost for a couple of minutes. By the time you have made your sandwich, the bread is defrosted and as long as it's less than a couple of weeks old is still fairly soft and reasonably fresh. I've found some types of bread (esp supermarket) won't let you break free a slice and end up as one big lump. In most cases this is pretty crappy bread anyway which we don't bother with.
