White Bread Recipes

White bread is a soft, mild, and versatile staple that works in far more than everyday sandwiches. Its tender crumb absorbs custards, sauces, butter, and pan drippings especially well, making it useful in both sweet and savory recipes. Use white bread for classic French toast, grilled cheese, bread pudding, strata, stuffing, and quick homemade croutons. Day-old slices are especially valuable because they hold their shape better when soaked, baked, or toasted. It also makes excellent fresh breadcrumbs for meatballs, meatloaf, casseroles, fried cutlets, and crisp toppings. Because its flavor is neutral, white bread pairs easily with bold cheeses, herbs, eggs, jams, roasted meats, and creamy sauces.
