croutons
Toasted bread bits
Croutons are small cubes of bread that have been toasted or fried until crisp, typically seasoned with herbs, garlic, or butter.
They add texture to salads and soups: Caesar salad with croutons, a bowl of tomato soup topped with croutons.
Homemade croutons use stale bread; packaged versions are a supermarket staple.
