Features:Few things taste as yummy as a loaf of fresh-baked bread. But if you've ever made homemade loaves or purchased unsliced bread from the bakery, you know there can be one major snag. Slicing through soft dough is not easy, even if you have the right knife.In addition to the challenge of making clean cuts through fresh bread, there's the issue of making sure your slices are consistent. It can be tough to get an even thickness to your slices, which can interfere with the texture and taste of a sandwich.Enter the bread slicer. Available in a variety of styles, these gadgets make it easy to create evenly thick slices of bread that look like they came through a precision bakery. You'll still need a good knife, of course, as the slicer just serves as a guide. But there are different types of bread slicers, and it's important to consider the variables before you buy.First, there's the issue of cleanup. If you want a bread slicer you can drop into the dishwasher between uses, a plastic option might be best for you. However, bamboo bread slicers can easily be wiped clean with a damp cloth for cleanup. It's important to look at a slicer with a crumb tray to keep the mess at a minimum to start.Another thing to keep in mind is storage. Unless you'll be using your bread slicer every day, you'll probably want to store it away when you're finished with it. Some fold up to make it easy to tuck into a drawer or cabinet. You'll even find slicers that come with a storage bag to keep dirt and debris at bay until you're ready to use it again. Pay close attention to the dimensions if you choose a slicer that doesn't offer these storage features and make sure you'll have somewhere to keep it.
