Lightly toasted bread, butter and anchovies are quick and easy croutons with a unique flavor.

A perfect appetizer for party days or a tasty snack.

Croutons with butter and anchovies are easy to make and have a great effect, but to obtain a perfect result it is essential to use good quality raw materials.

If you have the time and are feeling adventurous, you can also flavor the butter with herbs (even basil broken up by hand and then mixed with the butter at room temperature.

For a dramatic effect, you can use a small sac à poche to create 'little flowers' of butter.

If you like butter and anchovy croutons as much as we do, you can take small milk or oil sandwiches and make them for lunch instead of as an appetizer or entree.
