Home Made Bread Crumbs

Wondering how to use the leftover, or few days old bread? Its just soo simple n easy!! Make bread crumbs :) Bread crumbs are dry bread that has been grated and finely ground. It can be made with the crust or whole bread can also be used. They can although be made by fresh bread too :)

In ready made bread crumbs, they may use emulsifiers, colors or treatment agents (which I usually avoid as nothing beats home made). Bread crumbs can be used to coat snacks, like kebabs or coat chicken or fish while frying to give it a crispier taste. I usually make large amount of bread crumbs every several months. Half kg of bread will give almost 3 cups of bread crumbs.

Here is how to make bread crumbs at home. Its so simple, that I feel odd explaining it to u, but still :P

Ingredients:

Leftover Bread slices/Crust

Salt - Pinch

Procedure:

-First of all cut the crusts of the bread if u wish to use the crusts only. Or cut the bread slices into small cubes if u r using whole bread, because it will give a more even result. I have used the leftover crusts of the sandwiches.

Next place them in a bowl/plate and dry them in microwave oven for 2-3 minutes. 

All the moisture will be finished. Allow the crusts to cool completely. Next add the dried crusts & salt into the food processor & pulse until the crumbs are finely processed. Bread crumbs are readddyy!!

Note: Make sure the crumbs are dry before storing them.

-Store the crumbs in an air tight container & refrigerate.
