American Mark Panko Breadcrumb (200g)

Panko Breadcrumb is a type of flaky breadcrumb used in a wide variety of dishes for its light, airy texture and crispy finish. Originating from Japanese cuisine, panko is made from crustless white bread that is processed into flakes and then dried. Unlike traditional breadcrumbs, panko has a coarser, flakier texture that absorbs less oil, making it ideal for frying foods to a golden, crunchy perfection. It is commonly used in dishes like tonkatsu (breaded pork cutlet) and tempura.

Breadcrumbs, in general, are made from crumbled bread of varying dryness and textures. They can be plain or seasoned, and are versatile ingredients in cooking. Breadcrumbs are used for breading or coating fried foods, topping casseroles, stuffing poultry, thickening stews, and adding bulk to soups, meatballs, and meatloaf. Whether you’re baking, frying, or cooking savory dishes, breadcrumbs—including panko—add texture, structure, and flavor, enhancing both the taste and presentation of the meal.
