SOUP ACCESSORIES

Toasted Crackers

Put ¼ teaspoon of butter in the centre of each cracker, and bake on a pie-plate until slightly brown. Use unsweetened crackers for this purpose.

Cheese Crackers

Sprinkle grated cheese over the crackers, arrange them on a pie-plate, and bake until the cheese melts.

Croutons

Cut stale bread into ½-inch squares, and brown either in the oven or in melted butter in the frying-pan. The croutons should be placed on the table in a dish or bowl, with a spoon for serving.
