Black Bread Crackers with Garlic
Ingredients
Servings 1- Borodinsky bread - 200 g
- Refined sunflower oil - 34 g
- Garlic - 5 g
Cooking
Step 1
Prepare the bread. Cut the Borodinsky bread in half. Cut the halves into regular slices 5-7 mm thick. Cut each slice into strips about 8-10 mm wide. Then into cubes.
Step 2
Dry the rusks in the oven. Place the pieces of black bread in a baking dish or on a baking sheet greased with oil. Put the rusks in the oven at 160-180℃ for 30 minutes. Do not bake them too much right away, you need to dry them until they are crispy. Remove the baking sheet and stir the rusks about every 10-15 minutes. Be careful, the cooking time may vary depending on the power of the oven. The rusks should not be overcooked.
Step 3
Prepare the coating for the croutons. Mix butter, freshly ground pepper mixture, salt and garlic. Let it sit for 3-5 minutes. Remove the baking sheet with croutons from the oven. Add the prepared garlic mixture to the croutons. Stir vigorously so that the garlic does not stick together into lumps. Add salt in portions if necessary. Put the croutons with garlic in the oven to dry for 8-10 minutes.
Step 4
Cool the crackers. Let the crackers with garlic stand uncovered to remove any remaining moisture, including that from the garlic. Sometimes it may take 6-8 hours if the crackers are not completely dried in the oven.
