About Bread crouton

Bread croutons are small, crispy cubes of bread, often seasoned and toasted or fried to enhance flavor and texture. Traditionally used in soups and salads, croutons are believed to have originated in French cuisine, where leftover bread was repurposed to avoid waste. Ingredients typically include bread, olive or vegetable oil, butter, and seasonings like garlic, herbs, or cheese. Nutritionally, croutons are a source of carbohydrates and provide some energy, but they are low in protein, fiber, and essential nutrients. Their health aspects depend on preparation—those made with whole-grain bread or baked instead of fried are healthier options. However, croutons can be high in sodium and fat, especially when heavily seasoned or fried in oil. While they add texture and crunch to dishes, moderation is key to keeping meals balanced.
