Richard Blais'S Toasted Herb Bread Crumbs

1. 1

   Preheat the oven to 300u00b0F. Scatter the torn bread on a baking sheet and toss with enough olive oil to lightly moisten but not saturate it, about 1 tablespoon. Season well with salt and pepper, scatter the herbs over the bread, toss well, and spread out. Bake until the bread is dried and beginning to turn golden, about 10 minutes. Remove from the oven.

2. 2

   Meanwhile, heat 1 tablespoon oil in a small skillet over medium heat. Add the garlic and cook until softened, about 5 minutes. Add the garlic and oil to the bread crumbs, toss to combine, and spread out. Return the crumbs to the oven and bake until golden brown, 6 to 8 minutes. Cool the bread crumbs completely on the baking sheet (they can then be crushed finer with your hands, if you'd like).

3. 3

   Store the crumbs in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 weeks.
