Hand Torn Croutons
- 1/2 Loaf of sourdough bread
- 1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil
- salt to taste – use more than you think I use about 2 teaspoons.
Salad
- Arugula
- Quartered Strawberries
- Snap Peas
- Burrata Cheese
Dressing
- 1/2 cup extra virgin olive oil
- 1/4 cup red wine vinegar
- salt to taste
- Croutons: Preheat your oven to 375. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Turn on some music and start tearing up that loaf of bread! You want a variety of sizes when it comes to tearing. The small crumbs will add a crunchy texture and the bigger ones will be a little softer with a nice crunchy outside. Toss in olive oil, sprinkle with salt… and then add a pinch more for good luck. Bake for 5-8 minutes. Keep an eye on them, they can be golden one minute and burnt the next!
- Assemble: I like to strategically set this beautiful salad up. Strawberries are scattered over the bed of arugula. I open up the snap peas to show off their beautiful peas and snap a few in half for various sizes. Burrata cheese is placed in the center and sprinkled with croutons.
- Dressing: In a jar simply shake up your olive oil, red wine vinegar, and salt. Add dressing a few minutes before enjoying to let the strawberries soak up the vinegar. This will make their flavor pop!
Notes
- I enjoy adding micro greens to this for another boost of nutrition.
- Sourdough bread is best for this specific recipe
- Maldon Sea Salt is my absolute favorite salt for seasoning croutons. You get a nice pop of flavor!
