Wow your guests with this fun presentation: Use a scooped-out bread loaf for a serving bowl and surround it with cut raw veggies for dipping. Simply cut a circular opening on the top of the loaf of bread, using a serrated knife. Remove the top and pull out the soft bread from the inside. Cut the top and the inside of the bread that you've removed into bite-size cubes to serve with the dip if you wish. You can also leave the bread cubes on baking sheet at room temperature overnight to dry out. Then process the cubes in a food processor fitted with the metal blade so that you have bread crumbs for a future recipe. Store the crumbs in a sealed freezer bag in your freezer.
