Provided by John Mitzewich

Categories     Dinner     Lunch     Ingredient

Time 1h15m

Number Of Ingredients 9

4 cloves garlic (minced very fine)
1/2 cup olive oil
1 (8-ounce) loaf French baguette or similar style bread (for best results, use day-old bread)
3/4 cup finely grated Parmesan cheese, divided
1/2 teaspoon dried Italian herbs
1/2 teaspoon paprika
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon black pepper (freshly ground)
Pinch of cayenne

Steps:

  • Gather the ingredients.
  • Combine the garlic and olive oil in a small mixing bowl. Let sit out at room temperature for at least 4 hours to infuse.
  • Preheat oven to 300 F. Cut the bread into 1-inch cubes and add to a large mixing bowl. Add 1/2 cup of the cheese, dried herbs, paprika, salt, black pepper, and cayenne.
  • Strain the garlic oil over the bread cubes, pressing the garlic with the back of a spoon to get every drop of garlicky goodness. Toss with a spatula until the bread is evenly coated.
  • Pour the mixture onto a baking sheet and place in the preheated oven for 15 minutes. Remove, and stir the croutons, as the ones on the outside will cook faster than those in the center. Return to oven, and cook for 15 more minutes.
  • Remove from oven, and sprinkle the last 1/4 of cheese over the croutons. Return to oven, and cook for 10 to 15 minutes, or until browned and crunchy. Allow them to cool completely before storing in an airtight container.

CAESAR SALAD WITH CRUNCHY CROUTONS



Caesar Salad with Crunchy Croutons image

Provided by Tyler Florence

Categories     side-dish

Time 25m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 15

1/2 loaf crusty Italian bread
1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
1/4 cup grated Parmesan
2 tablespoons fresh thyme leaves
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
4 anchovy fillets
1 clove garlic, smashed
2 lemons, juiced
1 tablespoon water
1/2 cup extra-virgin olive oil
1/2 cup freshly grated Parmesan
Freshly ground black pepper
Salt
2 heads romaine lettuce
Freshly grated Parmesan, for garnish

Steps:

  • Make the croutons:
  • Heat the oven to 350 degrees F.
  • Hand-tear the bread into small pieces and put them into a bowl. Add the olive oil, Parmesan, and thyme leaves; season with salt and pepper. Mix this well to combine all the flavors. Spread the cubes out onto a baking sheet and bake until they are golden brown, about 15 minutes. Let them cool before tossing them onto the salad.
  • Make the dressing: Put the anchovies, garlic, lemon juice, and water into a blender and process for 30 seconds until the mixture is smooth. With the blender running, pour the olive oil in slowly for the dressing to emulsify. Stir in the Parmesan and a couple of grinds of black pepper. Season, to taste, with salt and set aside. (Refrigerate the dressing if you will not be using it right away.)
  • Assemble the salad: Tear the lettuce into a large bowl. Add enough dressing to coat the salad to your liking. Add the croutons and some extra Parmesan and toss the salad well. Serve immediately.

EASY CRUNCHY GARLIC CROUTONS RECIPE



Easy Crunchy Garlic Croutons Recipe image

Croutons are a great garnish for green salads and (as with any croutons), toss them in at the very last minute to prevent them from getting soggy. You want your bread to be at least a day old. It'll be easier to cut and holds it's shape better. We used my mom's ultra soft wheat bread (Visit NatashasKitchen.com for the video and photo tutorial). You could also use a basic french bread with great results.

Categories     Easy

Time 25m

Number Of Ingredients 7

3/4 lb loaf of bread ((5 cups of bread cubes))
2 Tbsp unsalted butter

1/4 tsp freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

  • In a small sauce pan, combine: 2 Tbsp butter, 2 Tbsp extra virgin olive oil, 2 pressed garlic cloves, 1 Tbsp chopped parsley, 1/4 tsp salt and 1/4 tsp pepper. Heat over medium heat until butter is melted. Stir to combine then set aside and let the flavors infuse into the oil while you chop your bread.
  • Cut your bread into 3/4" cubes. For goodness sake, don't remove the crust! It adds variety and great crunch to these croutons. Transfer to large mixing bowl.
