The 'ends' Of A Loaf Of Bread

[jack daniels]

using a loaf of bread a wondered what people do with the end bits. I dont really like them so with mine they either get made into breadcrumbs or the birds get them

what do you do with yours?

Croutons, toss cubes in olive oil and put into a low oven to crisp. Keep in an airtight container to eat with soups. I also put some garlic and mixed herbs in as well.

Do you mean the crusts? I toast mine

[Sipowicz]

I eat them, the best parts of the loaf!

[Sipowicz]

I believe they are known as heels.

Toasted, they is luvverly ;o)

[Cloverjo]

If I've got no other bread, I'll toast them. Otherwise I throw them away, which is very bad. I feel terrible for saying that and wasting food, so I'm going to toast and eat them in future.

Bread and butter pudding.

[ummmm]

I bin them.

i tried panzanella and didnt like it but thank you Khandro
ive done croutons but i get quite a lot of crusts since we go through quite a lot of bread
love bread and butter pud but dont make it that often togo
i ended up slicing off the very end part and toasting it which wasnt too bad but would welcome more ideas

BTW i sometimes find that the ends have 'sweated' in the pack and i do throw them away.

I'm a fan of lightly toasted crusts with a spread of Marmite and cream cheese atop.

Some ideas here.

I bin mine too!! Not my favourite part of the loaf.
I also cut the ends off baguettes!

I feed the birds with leftovers including crusts.

Toast and add loads of butter and "Roses" lime marmalade - delicious. In Dundee we call the "ends" of a loaf of bread heelies.

I eat them as well , better than the rest of the loaf!
