Strong Pantry: Bread

I try to always have a good quality loaf of bread on hand (preferably sourdough, preferably whole wheat). I don’t always manage this, but when I do, I always have a meal in no time, either by piling a salad on top of a thick slice of toast, browning croutons, or making bread salad (panzanella) by tossing the bread with any number of vegetables and a good amount of dressing.
