Tips

Tip: To make your own fresh breadcrumbs, trim crusts from whole-wheat bread.

Tear bread into pieces and process in a food processor until coarse crumbs form.

To make fine breadcrumbs, process until very fine.

One slice of bread makes about 1/2 cup fresh breadcrumbs or about 1/3 cup dry breadcrumbs.

For store-bought coarse dry breadcrumbs we like Ian’s brand, labeled Panko breadcrumbs.

Find them at well-stocked supermarkets.
