It’s a simple trick that only takes a few minutes.
So you bought an awesome loaf of bread, but you've neglected it for days. It's probably stale by now.
But wait — don't throw it out. Bon Appétit has a genius solution.
First, be sure your loaf isn't moldy. There is a limit to the life-saving magic you can work.

Then run your bread under water. No, seriously, it'll help.
The water can be hot or cold.
Try to angle the loaf so the crust is near the faucet, but it's OK if the insides end up getting wet.
