Cómo preparar Caesar Croutons
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
- In a small bowl, whisk together the Caesar dressing ingredients: 1/4 cup olive oil, 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice, 1 tablespoon lemon zest, 2 cloves garlic (minced), 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder, 1/4 teaspoon black pepper, 1/4 teaspoon dried oregano, 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese, 1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley, 1/2 teaspoon seasoned salt.
- Cut 1 loaf of day-old bread (about 1 pound) into 1-inch cubes. If using fresh bread, let it sit at room temperature for about an hour to slightly dry out.
- In a large bowl, toss the bread cubes with the Caesar dressing until evenly coated.
- Spread the crouton mixture in a single layer on two large baking sheets.
- Bake for 15-20 minutes, stirring every 5 minutes, until golden brown and crispy. Ovens vary, so keep a close eye on them.
- Let the croutons cool completely on a wire rack before storing in an airtight container.
- (Optional) Save the bread crusts; pulse them in a food processor to create breadcrumbs for added texture and flavor. Toast them separately until golden brown.
- (For Caesar Salad Dressing): To make a Caesar salad dressing, simply whisk in 2-3 anchovy fillets (finely chopped or mashed) into the Caesar dressing mixture.
- Enjoy your homemade Caesar croutons and/or dressing!
