Sourdough Croutons

Ingredients

12 tablespoons (1 1/2 sticks) unsalted butter, at room temperature
6 anchovies packed in oil, patted dry
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
8 (1/2-inch-thick) slices sourdough bread
Olive oil

Preparation

  1. Step 1

    Preheat a grill pan over medium-high heat, or preheat your broiler.

    Step 2

    Combine the butter and anchovies in a food processor, and process until smooth. Season with salt and pepper, and scrape into a bowl.

    Step 3

    Brush one side of the bread with olive oil, and season with salt and pepper. Grill, oil side down (or broil, oil side up), until light golden brown. Turn over and continue grilling until light golden brown on both sides.

    Step 4

    Remove the bread to a platter, and spread some of the butter mixture on the seasoned side. Cut each slice in half crosswise, to make 16 croutons.
