Directions
The Barefoot Contessa’s Parmesan Croutons, This recipe comes from Ina’s book, The Barefoot Contessa Cookbook She says it was devised to use leftover baguettes and she uses them as crackers for appetizers, on top of soup and as a snack She suggests that you grate whole parmesan rather than buying the already grated kind , Simple recipe that is very, very good Leftovers make good croutons I only had to bake mine for 10 minutes at 400 degrees just difference between ovens , I put these on top of mushroom soup Very simple, and loved the extra spice of the pepper I baked mine at 350 for about 20 min and they were perfect
