Private Selection 12 Grain Wide Pan Bread
What it is
This is a loaf of bread made with a blend of twelve different grains. The grains are milled and combined to create a hearty texture and a complex flavor profile. The bread is baked in a wide pan, which results in slices that are broader and flatter than those from a standard loaf. This shape makes it ideal for sandwiches and toast.
How people cook with it
This bread is a versatile staple for many meals. It can be enjoyed simply or as a base for more elaborate dishes.
- Sandwiches
- Toast
- French toast
- Breadcrumbs
The wide slices of this bread are perfect for building substantial sandwiches. They hold up well to a variety of fillings, from deli meats and cheeses to spreads and vegetables. For toast, the broad surface area ensures even browning and crispness. It can also be cubed and used to make croutons or processed into breadcrumbs for coating or thickening dishes. When making French toast, the absorbent nature of the bread allows it to soak up the egg mixture beautifully.
How it differs from similar foods
Compared to white bread, this 12-grain variety offers a more robust flavor and a chewier texture due to the inclusion of multiple grains. Its wider shape also sets it apart from standard loaves, providing a different eating experience and better coverage for toppings.
Who it is for
Home cooks and families who appreciate a hearty and flavorful bread option for everyday meals.
How to keep the rest
To maintain freshness, store any unused portions in the original packaging or an airtight container at room temperature. For longer storage, the bread can be frozen, either whole or sliced, and thawed as needed.
