Notes
- Bread: Sturdy breads with texture are best such as baguettes, country bread, or sourdough loaves. The denser the bread is, the harder the final croutons will be.
- Yield: This recipe makes about 8 cups of croutons, enough for 16 (1/2-cup) servings.
- Storage: Store covered in a cool dark place for up to 2 weeks, or freeze for up to 1 month.
