How to refresh hard, dried bread?
I'm talking about leavened bread.
I know that it is possible, but difficult, some kind of an art, and I know ways not to do it.
-
Soaking it in water quickly will make it soaking wet, making the pores collapse and totally destroying the texture.
-
Soaking it too short will only soften the outer layer.
-
Soaking it for days will get it moldy.
-
Steaming it encounters similar problems, but is probably on the right path.
Anyone here who was done it successfully? What to do, and what to avoid?

Lightly sprinkle water on the bread, wrap it in foil, and heat in the oven at 160°C for 8 to 10 minutes to restore softness and freshness.
