A simple kitchen hack to keep bread fresher for longer has been revealed after a mum-of-two shared a video on social media.
Perth mum Carolina McCauley shared the simple trick in an Instagram video and used a single airtight container.
In the video, she inserted the whole packet of sliced bread into the clear rectangular container and sealed it with the lid on top.
‘Use an airtight container with the whole bag inside,’ Carolina wrote online, adding: ‘Keep it sealed and your fresh bread will last longer.’

Carolina used a rectangular container to match the shape of the loaf of bread perfectly.
The store-bought bread was also kept inside the bag for added convenience, though some online questioned this method.
‘Why keep the bread bag inside?’ one person asked, and another responded with: ‘You can pull the edges of the bag and it will lever the bread upwards to grab a slice and not put your entire hand in the container.’
‘We need this, our bread is always off in like two days,’ another woman wrote and tagged her husband.

The convenient hack will ensure the bread doesn’t go off too quickly.
After four days the video received more than 24,000 ‘likes’ from thousands of social media users.
According to Heathline, store-bought bread can last up to seven days if stored at room temperature while homemade bread often only lasts up to five days.
In warmer climates, the bread can also be placed in the fridge to last longer.
