Croutons Sale e Pepe
Ingredients:
- 1 loaf of sourdough bread or your favorite rustic bakery loaf
- ⅛ cup of a cup (2-3 tablespoons) of good olive oil. Use more if desired.
- 1 tablespoon of Stella's Table Salt Essential Blend
- 2 teaspoons of Stella's Table Pepper Essential Blend
Directions:
Cut the bread into cubes. Place in a large bowl and add olive oil. Toss to coat the bread thoroughly. Add the salt and pepper and mix to evenly coat the bread. Spread out evenly on a baling sheet. Bake at 425° F for 10-20 minutes until crispy and golden.
To have you croutons keep their crunch longer, bake them for an additional hour at 200° F.
This recipe is really forgiving. Add more of this or less of that to fit your own tastes. The combination of our Salt and Pepper Essential Blends REALLY make these amazing croutons ones that you'll want to snack on all by themselves.
