Like some other “bread” words, including baguette, brioche, biscuit, crepe, and croissant, the word crouton comes to the English language from French. The word specifically comes from the French word for “crust.”
And
just like “French bread” and “French toast,” what a delicious
acquisition for our language!
Croutons
are pieces of bread that are often seasoned and then sautéed or
rebaked in oil or butter. Sometimes croutons are smallish jagged
hunks of bread, and sometimes they are cubes. They can be added to
soups or salads – and of course they can be munched as a snack
food.
