HOME MADE PANKO CRUMBS
Panko (breading) crumbs are the absolute best for many, many recipes. I recently used them to turn "ho-hum" shrimp into "Wow, these are GREAT" shrimp. Ive heard of people using Panko in meatloaf and meatballs (I havent tried that yet) as well as a ton of other recipes.
My biggest problem with panko bread crumbs is that they can be expensive AND they are NOT something I routinely keep in my pantry. Thats why I was thrilled to make this discovery!!
Panko bread crumbs are different from standard bread crumbs because they are a made from SHREDDED bread, not bread crumbs. With that in mind, I FROZE 4 slices of regular (cheap) sandwich bread. I then cut the crusts off and cut the resulting "squares" of sandwich bread in half. I then stacked them up and fed them through the SHREDDER in my food processor. This is what they looked like:

They were light and fluffy, just like
commercial Panko crumbs!!

I then sprinkled them evenly over a dry cookie sheet, gently spreading them as thin as I could and baked them in a pre-heated 300° oven for about 10 minutes. Actually, they were dry in 8 minutes, but I let them stay in their for a couple more minutes to be sure. Just dont let them turn color.
This "recipe" will make about 1½ cups of crumbs, so if you double the recipe, make sure you bake it on two cookie sheets so the crumbs can spread out and dry properly.
