Notes
I recommend using stale bread for the best texture.
If in a hurry, leave fresh bread cubes out overnight or lightly toast them.
Feel free to swap in chicken broth for a richer taste, or make it vegan by using olive oil instead of butter.
If you love more crunch, consider adding some chopped nuts like walnuts or pecans.
Experimenting with this dish can lead to delightful results! 😊
