Quick Food Tip: DIY Breadcrumbs
Don’t ever throw that stale bread out! Making your own breadcrumbs is so easy and I bet you already have the ingredient on hand (bread!).
There’s a variety of ways to make your crumbs:
- Throw a piece of stale/toasted bread or two in a food processor
- Rip a few pieces of stale/toasted bread in half and chop with a manual food chopper
- Put a few pieces of stale/toasted bread in a sandwich bag and roll over it with a rolling pin
You can also make breadcrumbs out of crackers, nuts, or cornflakes.
Just store your breadcrumbs in a container in the cupboard for two weeks or the freezer for months.
