The rich, buttery flavor and slightly cakelike texture of brioche bread make it a versatile bread you can serve as a sweet pastry or a savory dinner roll. You can also prepare it in a traditional brioche roll pan, as a loaf, tart or any other shape. If you have taken on the challenge of making brioche, proper storage is important if you don't plan on using or eating it right away. You can choose to either freeze the prepared brioche dough before baking, or freeze the freshly baked bread.
