Savory Croutons

Recipe Ingredients

8		Dry French bread - - (1" thick)
1/4 cup	59ml	Olive oil
2		Garlic cloves
1/2 teaspoon	2.5ml	Salt
3 tablespoons	45ml	Mixed fresh herbs - minced
		(such as oregano - thyme, and rosemary)

Recipe Instructions

Without removing the crusts, cut the bread into 1-inch cubes. Do not worry if the cubes are not perfectly square. One of their charms is their irregular homemade look.

Heat the olive oil in a frying pan over medium heat. Add the garlic, reduce the heat to low, and saute the garlic for 2 to 3 minutes. Add the bread cubes and cook slowly over low heat until golden and crusty, about 4 or 5 minutes on each side.

When done, sprinkle the cubes with the salt and herbs, turn a few times in the pan, and then remove to a paper towel to drain and cool. The croutons may be stored for several days in a closed paper bag.

Makes 4 cups of savory croutons.
