Croutons | Traditional Bread From France, Western Europe | TasteAtlas

Croutons

Croutons are small pieces of twice-baked or sautéed bread that are usually cut into cubes and seasoned. Although the word is derived from the French croûte, meaning crust, the origins of croutons are unknown, but many people believe that they were invented in France.


These small pieces of bread are often added to salads for more flavor and texture, but they can also be used as accompaniments to soups and stews.
