Garlic Parmesan Croutons! image

Pretty much any type of bread will make good croutons. You can use stale pieces of baguette to the end slices of a sandwich loaf. Good croutons follow these basic rules= Make sure to cut the bread into uniform pieces, the cubes must be tossed with olive oil that has been laced with the determined spices, and the pieces must be baked in a 350*F. oven until golden. These are great served over soup and salads, even good as a munchy. Adapted from The America's Test Kitchen Family Cookbook.

I followed the recipe exactly, but my croutons turned out too brown. I think I'll cook them for a shorter amount of time next time.

These croutons are a bit too oily for my taste. I think I'll try using less oil next time.

I'm not a huge fan of croutons, but these ones are really good. They're nice and crispy, and they have a great flavor.

I've tried many different croutons recipes, but this one is by far the best. The garlic and parmesan flavors are perfectly balanced.
