Beeswax-Lined Linen Bread Bags for Sourdough, 2 Pack

Two flax-linen bags lined with beeswax, which is the old answer to the problem plastic solves badly: the crust stays crisp and the crumb stays soft, because linen breathes and wax keeps it from drying out. For the friend who has gone down the sourdough road — and there is one in every circle now — this is the rare gift that is both pretty on a counter and quietly better than what they are using. Fold one around a loaf you baked and the bag becomes the wrapping.

Good to know: Beeswax lining means cold hand-washing only, never a hot machine, or the wax lifts. They also suit a round or short loaf better than a long baguette.
