Since the lockdown has reduced services at supermarkets, they have their nice freshly baked bread available. But won't slice it, which is a PITA.
Amazon have a variety of plastic guides for slicing bread at less than a tenner, but reviews suggest they aren't that sturdy.
Bearing in mind the professional slicer is a series of cutting wires that actually saw through the loaf in one pass, is there anything the good posters here would recommend ?
Since the bread freezes beautifully, I did try slicing it from frozen. You can guess how well that went from the fact I am posting this :)
I guess the knife plays a part. I'm using a standard bread knife from a Richardson set ... I notice you can play over £20 for one from Amazon ...
