How can I salvage dry bread and get some moisture back into it?
Answers:
Hello,
I put my dry bread in the
microwave for a few seconds.
About 4-5 seconds for 1 slice of
bread. Don't leave in too long or
it will be tough. It tastes just
like fresh bread again. Enjoy!!!

No, once it's gone, it's gone as sliced bread goes.
BUT! It is perfect for making bread crumbs, French Toast, or bread puddings.
You can mix together some garlic butter and some oregano and then smother the bread in it. It is great for BB Q'S I don't think that you can put moister back into bread any other way.
put the bread in a large strainer in a bean pot with a half inch of water & steam it until fluffy again(cover pot)
put it in the dishwasher
Try this my mum used to make it.
Not really heathy food but but taste good.

Yes. You can spritz your loaf of bread with water and place in a 350 degree oven for about 10-15 minutes. This will crisp up the bread but also it won't be so hard and dry since you spritzed it with water. Warming it in the oven also makes it taste fresher and less stale.
What I do is take 2 regular paper towels, wet them then ring them out so they are just moderately damp, then put them in the microwave with the bread/rolls and microwave them for about 10-15 seconds depending on the size. Works great and makes the bread nice and toasty
This may sound crazy, but nuke the bread for 10-15 seconds in your microwave.
