1
Prepare the breadcrumbs:Preheat the oven to 300F. Toss some day-old bread in a food processor. Even better if it's whole grain, or from a local bakery.
2
Spread the crumbs on a foiled baking dish, add salt, pepper, oregano and olive oil. Toss with your hands to coat, and bake for about 15 minutes, or until golden.Start the beans:Mash up four of the anchovy fillets with a fork.
3
Heat up a large cast iron skillet, and add about 2 tablespoons of olive oil. Turn the heat to low, and throw in the anchovies. Flatten with a wooden spoon until they dissolve. Then, turn the heat up to medium and add the onions. Stir around until soft and translucent, about five minutes.
