Breadcrumbs

pantry · 22 recipes

Breadcrumbs are in 22 recipes, and the type is not interchangeable. Panko is cut rather than ground, so the flakes are larger and absorb less oil, which is why it fries into a coating that stays crunchy after sauce hits it. Standard fine crumbs pack tighter and give a denser, more even crust. Inside a patty, crumbs soaked in a little milk keep a lean mixture — turkey, chicken, beans — from drying out, which is the one place they belong in beef.
