• Remove the crusts from the bread slices. Cut the bread into large cubes. Transfer to a food processor and pulse until uniformly chopped (the pieces of bread should be slightly smaller than a peppercorn; you should have about 2 cups).
• Transfer to a medium bowl and stir in the melted butter, Parmesan, a pinch of salt and few grinds of black pepper. Spread on a rimmed baking sheet. Bake until golden brown and crisp, stirring halfway through, about 14 minutes. Set aside on a wire rack to cool.
• Meanwhile, place another rimmed baking sheet in the oven to preheat.

CREAM-BRAISED BRUSSELS SPROUTS

Steps:

• Melt the butter in skillet over medium-high heat. Add the Brussels sprouts and salt. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the sprouts are browned in spots, about 5 minutes.
• Pour in the cream, and bring to a simmer. Reduce the heat to low, cover, and simmer until the sprouts are tender and easily pierced with a fork, 30 to 35 minutes. The cream will have reduced in volume, and will have taken on a creamy beige color. Remove the lid, and stir in the lemon juice. Allow the sprouts to simmer a few minutes more until the cream thickens and coats the sprouts. Season to taste with additional salt and lemon juice before serving.
