Sugars with seasoning are good as a snack, and soups and salads are best made with garlic.

Ingredients:

• 500 grams of rye or wheat bread;
• 4 tablespoons vegetable oil;
• 3 cloves garlic.

Preparation:

1. Cut the bread into large cubes.
2. In a bowl, mix 2 tablespoons oil and crushed garlic.
3. In a bowl, add bread, pour it on top with 2 tablespoons of oil and gently mix everything with your hands. More oil should not be added, since then biscuits will come out too fat.
4. The pan is covered with baking paper and put on it bread cubes.
5. If you need to cook crackers in the oven, thenwarm it up preferably in advance (about 250 degrees). First they should be well fried for five minutes at 250 degrees. Then the oven is turned off, but the door is left closed until the oven cools. This is done so that the crackers are baked on top and well dried from the inside.
