Can I store freshly baked croutons?

If you have just baked some croutons, you may be looking for a way to store them until they are ready to use. You can store them in a sealed container or bag in the refrigerator, but they will need to be used within a few days.

If you want to store your croutons for longer than a few days, you will need to freeze them. If you do so, they may lose their crunchy texture and become soft and soggy. They will also take on the flavor of whatever else is in the freezer with them if they are not wrapped tightly.

Can I use frozen broccoli instead of fresh broccoli?

Frozen broccoli is a convenient and healthy alternative to fresh broccoli. I would not recommend using frozen broccoli for this recipe.

The best way to cook frozen broccoli is to place it in boiling water for about 10 minutes. This will allow the vegetable to thaw out and release its flavor.

It can be eaten as-is or mixed with other vegetables, sauces, or seasonings for extra flavor.

Another possible cooking method is steaming it in the microwave for three minutes on high power, which will also soften the vegetable and release its flavor.
