    Despite the doubts on here, theres actually a bakery that grinds down day old bread and reuses it on their next day batch. They say it gives it a good taste. Atleast according to a video i saw and logically it makes sense.

    The idea is to use some of it while using flour rather than replacing flour otherwise you will make condensed hard bread.

      My local bakery does this with sourdough. The recycled sourdough loaves are SUPER tangy, like tang-for-days levels. It’s great.

        That sounds awful. I think tangy sourdough bread is disgusting (which is one of the reasons I hated living in eastern Germany).
