Ingredients
- 500 g bread - 1.1 pound, stale or fresh, such as homemade rustic bread, sourdough bread, white loaf bread or sandwich bread
- breadsticks - or crackers, as long as they are NOT flavored with herbs, chilli pepper or olive oil
Instructions
- You can make Italian bread crumbs with stale bread. You can use slices of rustic bread, or sandwich bread, sourdough bread. In short, any type of stale bread you have at home. You can also make a mix, using various types of stale bread. Even better if you add breadsticks or/and crackers.
- Put the stale bread cut into pieces in the food processor or blender. If you mix it with breadsticks and crackers, your bread crumbs will be even tastier. Chop at maximum speed for a few minutes, depending on the desired consistency: 1 or 2 minutes for coarse bread crumbs, 3 or 4 minutes for fine bread crumbs.
- You can decide, according to the recipe you need to make, whether to grind very thin bread or leave it more grainy. If we want to use bread crumbs to bread cutlets, croquettes, meatballs or arancini, a coarser grain could make it better than a very fine one. A finer bread crumbs, on the other hand, might be better to make certain doughs drier or to make fillings.
