In a plastic, or mylar bag place all your dry ingredients for your favorite recipe, Except yeast, which is best kept sealed in a freezer or refrigerator. Seal. Store in pantry up to 6 months

I,ve had mine stored for a year and my bread has still came out perfect. so are all my pizza bread mix. when ready to use

Just place in bread machine add liquid ingredients . follow recipe instrution, wala! Fresh baked bread.
