Toasted Bread Crumbs

1. 1

   Adjust the oven rack to the middle position and preheat the oven to 350F.

2. 2

   Spread the bread crumbs in a single layer on a baking sheet and bake until theyre golden brown and crunchy, 10 to 12 minutes, shaking the pan occasionally for even cooking.

3. 3

   Remove the baking sheet from the oven and cool the crumbs to room temperature.

4. 4

   Gradually drizzle half of the olive oil over the bread crumbs and add the salt.

5. 5

   Stir to combine and add more olive oil as needed so the bread crumbs are moist but are not so wet that they clump together.

6. 6

   Use, or transfer the bread crumbs to an airtight container and store at room temperature for up to three days.
