How To Increase Shelf Life Of Flour

I couldn’t imagine not having flour to make all of the foods I love. Breads, pasta, COOKIES, cakes and so much more.

In this video I’m going to show you how you can take your store bought flour and extend the shelf life of it by a year or more.

Learning to bake your own bread is a priceless skill! I am so happy I have taken the time to learn. It isn’t difficult. Baking your own bread will save you time and money. It will also spare your mental health from having to go to the store (I don’t like going to the store.)

The ingredients to make homemade bread are most likely lining your pantry shelves already - water, yeast, sugar, salt, flour, butter or oil, and depending on the recipe some other this or that ingredients. Seriously, baking bread is so basic and you will TASTE the difference. Store bought bread just won’t compare!

One reason I love baking bread from scratch is because the aroma fills my house and makes my house smell so nice. A friend recently told me how baking bread is therapeutic for her; and I completely agree— it is therapeutic. Using a sourdough starter can bump up your bread making and make it more exciting, but it isn’t necessary! A sourdough starter is lovely because it provides yeast and you will never have to depend on store bought yeast for bread. Bread is cool, try baking some!

Have you ever made homemade bread?
