Albert Ménès Garlic Crouton

Tasting Notes from the Curator

Albert Ménès’s Garlic Crouton boasts an aromatic potency of pungent Allium sativum, deeply embedded within the fibrous texture of an artisanal cereal blend. Each crouton is a study in the juxtaposition of textures; the crisp, oven-baked exterior yields to a granular chewiness, rich with the earthy notes of rye, barley, corn, oats, wheat, rice, and millet. These elements are married seamlessly, anointed by a kiss of fruit-forward extra virgin olive oil, the peppery undertones of which punctuate the symphony of flavors. Imbued with a saltiness that whispers of their culinary lineage, these croutons are at once humble and illustrious — a paradox fashioned by meticulous crafting.
