Should the first crust slice be saved until last?
Is the loaf’s first crust a useful lid—or simply the first piece of toast? Today’s tiny household mystery is sliced and ready. 🍞

YES: leave the heel in place. It acts like a little lid and keeps the softer slices tucked behind it. 🍞
NO: bread is bread. Toast it, butter it and stop making one slice wait for everyone else.
