Questions about Multi-grain bread

What grains are usually in multi-grain bread?

It combines at least two grains, often wheat with oats, rye, barley, maize or millet. Some loaves also contain seeds; “multi-grain” does not necessarily mean wholegrain, so look for wholegrain flour near the start of the ingredients list if that is what you want.

How do you stop multi-grain bread from going stale?

Keep it sealed at room temperature for a few days, away from heat and moisture. For longer storage, freeze slices in a closed bag and toast them straight from frozen; refrigeration tends to make bread stale faster.

How do you toast multi-grain bread without burning the seeds?

Use a medium toaster setting: the grains and seeds on the crust can darken before the crumb is crisp. For a thicker slice, toast it once, turn it over and toast briefly again rather than using the highest setting.

What toppings go well with multi-grain bread?

Its nutty, substantial flavour works with sharp cheddar, hummus, mashed avocado or smoked salmon. It also makes a good base for beans on toast and holds up well in a grilled cheese sandwich.

Can you use multi-grain bread for French toast?

Yes. Dip each slice briefly in beaten egg and milk, then fry in a lightly buttered pan over medium heat for about 2–3 minutes per side. Sturdier slices hold their shape well, and cinnamon or savoury herbs both suit the grainy flavour.

Is multi-grain bread the same as wholemeal bread?

No: multi-grain means it contains several kinds of grain, while wholemeal means the grain flour includes the whole kernel. A multi-grain loaf can be made mostly from refined flour, so check the ingredients if you want wholemeal bread.

Is a multi-grain bagel healthier than multi-grain bread?
