Sweet and Sour Croutons

Preparation:

Preparation: Coarsely chop the capers, the soaked and squeezed raisins, the pine nuts. Add the finely chopped ham. Mix the butter with a teaspoon of sugar, half a spoonful of flour and let it melt in a saucepan. When it starts to bubble, pour the orange juice filtered through a sieve and three tablespoons of vinegar. Let it cook for a few minutes. Add this sauce to the ham mixture, season with salt and pepper, mixing carefully. Cut the loaf into diagonal slices, toast them lightly and then spread them with plenty of the mixture. Arrange them on a serving plate and serve warm. They are also good cold. These croutons have an unusual taste, but are worth a try. Accompanying wines: Bianco Di Custoza DOC, Galestro VdT Di Toscana, Gravina DOC.
