CAESAR SALAD CROUTONS

Steps:

• Combine garlic and oil in a small saucepan.
• Simmer until cloves are a light gold color, about 15 minutes.
• Pour oil through a fine sieve, squeeze all juice from cloves, and then discard the solids.
• Set garlic oil aside.
• Preheat oven to 300 degrees F (150 degrees C).
• Lightly oil a baking sheet.
• Arrange bread cubes in a single layer on baking sheet.
• Bake, turning bread cubes periodically, until lightly browned, about 20 minutes.
• In a large, non-stick skillet, melt 1/3 cup ghee with 1/3 cup garlic oil over medium heat.
• Cook toasted bread cubes in batches until light to medium golden brown, turning frequently.
• Add more ghee and garlic oil as needed.
• Turn out into basket lined with paper towels, and drain for about 20 minutes.
• Note: For other uses- garden salad, soup, etcetera- you can add dried herbs of your choice, but if you do, don't use them with a Caesar salad -- too many flavour contrasts.

• Save the crusts and toast in oven and make bread crumbs.
• When Im making caesar salad I use this recipe and add 2-3 anchovy fillets. A nice change from creamy dressings.
